Miguel Azral is a creature of legend born into a world that fears him. As an Aswang, he is defined by the shadows of his nature, but as an autistic youth, he is defined by his struggle to navigate a society that demands he be someone he is not.
Banished to the fringes, Miguel is recruited by two enigmatic mentors who promise him the truth about his powers-and his potential. But these aren't just any mentors; they are variants of himself from across the veil of reality. They offer him a path to acceptance, a chance to become the savior his world desperately needs.
As Miguel traverses the landscape of Burnham City, he finds his true strength not in solitude, but in a band of outcasts-friends who mirror his own neurodivergence and his own "monstrous" heritage. Together, they form an unbreakable bond in the face of relentless discrimination and bullying.
But as Miguel rises to become a martyr-figure for the marginalized, he discovers a chilling truth that makes him question his mentor's own allegiance.
In a world of shifting allegiances, can a "monster" who refuses to conform lead a revolution? Or will the weight of being a savior be the one thing that finally breaks him?
