Michael awakens not as the broken man he remembers, but as the long-prophesied Nephilim prince — a figure hailed as Ishim’s miracle and burdened with saving the Domes from the creeping corruption of Ashveil. To the Church he is destiny’s chosen; to himself he is only a misplaced soul trapped in a role he never wanted. While Michael wrestles with faith, duty, and fragments of a past life, another youth within the Dome walks a very different path.

Lewis is ordinary, yet burns with ambition. The Oathbound trials offer him a chance at greatness, a place in the Haven Domes, and recognition he craves. But ambition has teeth. When the world denies him, Lewis chooses a darker road, seeking power through the forbidden touch of the Shadow Plane.

One boy was born a miracle and longs to be free.
One boy was born ordinary and craves to be chosen.
In Ashveil, destiny does not save — it devours.
