Chapter 1: Rust and Ruin

Reality is broken, shattered into floating islands where time twists and history bleeds. Saena just wanted to scavenge enough to survive. But when a glowing shard fuses into her hand, she gains the terrifying power to pull the threads of existence-a power that might save a life one moment and wipe out a town the next. Now hunted by fanatics who want her dead and tyrants who crave her control, Saena's messy attempts to fix things might just unravel what's left of the world. Can she control the chaos before it consumes her?
