Synopsis

In a world where the Faithful are crushed and belief itself forges magic, order shatters overnight when a mysterious group hijacks every broadcast on Earth, declaring a chilling “Devil’s Conspiracy” that sparks panic, rallies the oppressed, and hurls nations into chaos.

Sarai, a 17 years old orphan, awakens among corpses in an ancient cave, bound to a profound magical entity he cannot name. As unstable powers erupt within him, he’s pulled toward the remnants of a long-buried history — one stained by forbidden faiths and twisted schemes.

Haunted, hunted, and caught in a world collapsing under its own beliefs, Sarai steps into a truth that corrodes everything it touches.
