Chapter One: The Shadow Falls

In a fractured world where shadow wars decide the fate of nations, Nyctarion, the elusive antihero, navigates betrayal, secret alliances, and weapons too dangerous to exist. When a botched mission ignites a deadly chain of events, Nyctarion's allies-Wraith and the enigmatic Azure-are pulled into a high-stakes operation that could rewrite the balance of power. Every second counts, and every move is a gamble, and in this game of deception, the only truth is that no one walks away clean.
