When disillusioned game designer Kael Yashiro, 22, is suddenly brought into the world of his half-finished fantasy MMORPG "Elarion," he finds he's not just any run-of-the-mill adventurer. He now has the function of "The Architect," a legendary entity that can shape the very nature of reality within the game universe. However, his coming causes disturbance, waking up sealed disasters and attracting the notice of great nations, renegade heroes, and angry gods. With an ethically ambiguous AI friend, fractured protagonists-turned-adversaries, and enigmatic glitches warping the rules of magic, Kael has to learn the truth about Elarion's creation—before the world breaks beneath its own prophecied coding.
