Description
When your mind is split in three, who decides your fate? Seventeen-year-old Kai Matthews has never felt whole. Born in the wake of a tragedy that tore a hole in reality, Kai lives with Dissociative Identity Disorder-and two alters who couldn't be more different. Echo, precise and calculating, sees time as an equation to be solved. Prism, luminous and impulsive, feels every emotion like it's made of light. But when Kai's battered old school locker rips open to reveal an impossible, shifting world inside, they're pulled into the Arcanum-a multidimensional academy where students learn to bend reality, navigate timelines, and guard the fragile threads of existence. It doesn't take long for Kai to learn the truth: they're not just human. They're half Refractor, able to rewrite their personal timeline, and half Lumenborn, able to shape light and emotion into living form. Their abilities make them valuable-and dangerous. Especially when visions of a future they can't escape begin to surface... a future where someone they love dies by their own hand. Now, with friends they're not sure they can trust and powers they can barely control, Kai must hold together the fractured pieces of themself before one identity takes over completely. Because in the Arcanum, time isn't on your side- and the wrong choice could unravel the universe.
