Varros Athelin was once a scholar of the City of Knowledge, a man devoted to study and truth. But when his pursuit of forbidden wisdom turned him and his son Kaelen into something more than human-something cursed-they were cast out, branded heretics, and hunted by the Faith. Surviving in exile, father and son stumble upon relics left by the Broken: six rings said to open paths beyond the world. Their theft unleashes a chain of events that shatters realms, awakens cults, and draws them into the chaos of realmwalking-where every crossing carries wonder, horror, and the promise of power. As Varros descends into obsession and Kaelen struggles against the hunger of his new nature, they must face the truth: the rings do not merely open doors. They unravel worlds. In a universe where gods watch in silence and mortals dare to steal eternity, knowledge demands a price. And the price is always blood.
