Author's Note

When Zev finds himself on a journey away from his home in Sanctum with only a new friend and his less-than-powerful ability, he must travel a path of hardship and dedication to find his lost older brother. In a tornado of self-discovery and more mysteries about the twelve-layered world he lives in than he can count, Zev must travel down the layers on his own path or die trying. Though, as he knows all too well, death can have many unexpected consequences.
