BOOK ONE | SEED OF DISCORD
Magic always ever blooming, evolving... but never for someone like him. In his past life, magic was nothing more than fantasy. No witches. No dragons. Just dull cities and dying stars. But when 18-year-old Zeny dies in a freak accident, he awakens in a realm where magic lives in every breath, and the sky changes color with emotion. Witches brew storms in teacups. Forests whisper names. And the world remembers those who try to forget. With no spell in his blood and no prophecy bearing his name, Zeny is the anomaly in a land where everyone else belongs. But something ancient is stirring beneath the roots of this world-something that remembers him. And maybe... it never let him go. He thought magic didn't exist-He was wrong. It was waiting.

Archibald Collin's life is suffocatingly dull. A forgettable accountant with a two first names, a placcid personality, and a plain face, he finds solace only in his cat and the rigid monotony of his routine.

Now, bound to a grumpy, sickly duke and trapped in a world of vibrant magic, Archibald must navigate his own deep seated anxieties and insecurities. But as a real connection forms with Blythe, Archie is forced to ask himself: is he merely a last resort, or could he truly be the salvation for a man barely knows?Complete
