DorianDrake
In a village forgotten by the ancient world lives Aren-Kal, a young hunter like many others of his tribe. His life is simple: to hunt, to fish, to care for his family, and to survive in a wild and unforgiving land. But one night, while keeping watch over the outskirts of the village, a fire descends from the sky.
After that inexplicable encounter, something within him changes.
The years pass... and Aren-Kal does not age.
While his friends, his family, and everyone he once knew fade with time, he remains the same. Forced to abandon everything he loves again and again, he begins a long pilgrimage across the Earth. Over the centuries he will become many things: hunter, warrior, traveler, mercenary, advisor-and for some peoples, even a legend.
Empires will rise and fall before his eyes.
Wars will devastate entire civilizations.
And the mystery of his existence will always follow him.
What Aren-Kal does not know is that his life is part of a far greater experiment. Since the dawn of human history, an unknown intelligence has been watching him... waiting.
When the day finally comes that humanity destroys itself and the world falls silent, the truth will come to light.
And Aren-Kal's journey will only just have begun.
Note: The novel is composed of episodic chapters. Each chapter functions as an independent episode in Aren-Kal's life, with its own beginning and ending-like small stories within a life that stretches across centuries.
Because beyond the Earth... the infinite expanse of space awaits him.
