In place beyond this paradigm, familiar ideals and entities play out on a different stage vying for vindication. A stage where the gun meets the blade. A stage where science and mysticism meet. A stage where the lines between saint, deity, icon, and human are blurred and where those who hold such titles must defend them. Echos and reflections bind themselves into recognizable shapes and shades of those who may not live and whom yet we may know. The angels and demons that drive society are present as always, though sometimes take on new forms, while the jury is as ever perpetually out on which is which. Power however is still power, but in this world it has many more faces...

[2023 Wattys Shortlist, 2023 Amby Awards winner, Featured 5 times in Wattpad Picks lists] Kaleth has worked as an agent of Luxarx for years. What the average person might see as an exciting, dangerous job has become the routine, and the only thing that fazes Kaleth now is that his habit of wearing suits everywhere is somehow still a thing his teammates tease him over. But that's all about to change. An encounter with one unexpectedly peaceful (and cute) terrorist soldier brings everything he thought he knew into question. If not all Umbra are dangerous criminals, what else does Luxarx get wrong? As he investigates, Kaleth stumbles onto a conspiracy that doesn't just concern the agency, but also his government, and the whole world. There are monsters hiding in plain sight, secretly in charge of everything since the very beginning - the long-forgotten dragon-gods with supernatural abilities. And they are definitely not as mythological as everyone thought. Now branded traitors, can Kaleth and his team fight back against the government they once served, and stop a world war before it can start? --------------------------- [word count: ≈ 90 000 words] [Featured in Wattpad Picks lists: 'Extraordinary Realms ✨' in December 2023, 'Reading Radar' in January 2024, 'Celebrating Wattpad Hits' in February 2024, and Valiant Heroes 🏰✨🏔 in June 2024, Rabbit Hole Reads 👀 in April 2026, and also on the @fantasy profile]
