In a fractured world ruled by the enigmatic Dream Realms, seventeen-year-old Kael is marked as Forsaken — those deemed unworthy of the gods’ favor and cast into the lowest tier of existence. Branded and abandoned, Kael survives in the shadows of ruined cities, scavenging to stay alive.

But when an ancient anomaly awakens beneath the shattered earth, Kael is pulled into the Eclipsed Dream, a dark reflection of reality where monsters born from fear and memory roam. There, he discovers a mysterious echo of himself — a forgotten fragment of power and madness — and a curse that allows him to absorb and wield the abilities of what he defeats... at a cost.

To survive, Kael must navigate the deadly politics of Dreamwalkers, evolve through combat, and uncover the truth behind the Forsaken, the collapse of the world, and the nightmarish force whispering through the cracks in reality.

Because in this game of dreams and blood, power has a price, and Kael’s debt is infinite.
