Synopsis
In the heart of a world drowned in sand and silence, a lone hunter descends into a cavern that should not exist, and finds something that cannot be forgotten. Flior, the last of Covak’s reapers, accepts a contract designed to kill him. But what begins as a simple descent soon spirals into a collision with gods, illusions, and truths too heavy for the mind to carry. As time warps and reality fractures, Flior returns not as a hero, but as a ghost, erased from history, burdened with a fragment of divinity, and hunted by an empire that no longer remembers his name. This is not a story of triumph. This is a story of identity torn apart, of beauty turned into a weapon, and of a soul clawing for meaning in a world where the stars no longer shine. Welcome to Haile. Welcome to the end.

Chapter 1 - Before the Dust

They often come to this land searching for power, expecting legends carved in flame and blood. They expect a single man to rise above all others, to become the strongest, to burn so brightly that even the stars blink in reverence.

But that is not what Haile offers.

If you came looking for stories where strength blooms overnight and revenge justifies itself without question, turn back now. Najiri does not sing those songs. It devours them.

This is a story carved in silence. It is not about triumph. It is about the slow erosion of the soul beneath suns that never set and skies that never clear. It is about men who walk until their names are swallowed by the sand, and about those who remain behind, clutching memories that no longer belong to them.

Here, people do not exist to elevate a chosen one. Here, they breathe, suffer, endure. They are not empty vessels orbiting a hero. They are the weight he must carry, the mirror he must fear.

Najiri will not hold your hand. It will show you strange dreams and leave you to make sense of them. The dialogue may whisper instead of shout, and truth may sleep beneath layers of ash. But it will be there. In time.

So if you're ready to listen to echoes, if you're willing to walk blindly into the dust and trust that meaning will emerge… then step forward.

But know this: once you enter, nothing will be as you expect.

And no one, least of all you, will emerge unchanged.
