Nineteen-year-old Mat Adam never expected his father's disappearance to uncover a world beyond the living. When a radiant mark known as the Seal of Light appears on his arm, Mat is thrust into the Astral Realm - a fragile land where dryads, sprites, and the last of the elves fight to survive. There, the fallen angel Casus Lucem, exiled from the higher realms, seeks to claim the island for himself using a forbidden weapon called the Kimera - a creation born from corrupted spirit energy. To rescue his father and others imprisoned within the Black Pillars, Mat must embrace the power that chose him, face the truth of his lineage, and stand between a fading light and the darkness determined to consume it.
