In a world not our own, Nel-Radin, history is also a heavy word, meaning that much happened, much is happening and yet more will happen. This story begins in the year 3'404 according to the Kastosian Calendar, in the small village of Gimvault, with a boy named Mayen who has no idea of what is happening beyond the stage of what he can see and understand. May it be politics with its wars, a strange and ominous creature with its deeply shrouded intents, or a prophecy speaking beyond the immediate promises it gives, a hard lesson is to be learned by Mayen. Faith and hope are the sturdiest walls and roof in the tempest of a life gone out of one's control. **TAKE NOTE** Characters in this book are meant to be in part the product of the culture they live in, meaning they won't hold to today's ideals or defend all the same causes we do. It is also meant to allow in future books some stories on social reforms.

21 year old Nathanael found a so-called 'prophecy' posted on a social media platform. It says that in a few years, the Lord is set to reset the world from its filthiness. In the prophecy, it says that the reset would take place in about years later and in those years the Earth would shake and the world would be enveloped in darkness while the Lord purge the evil on Earth. A little shaken at the thought he shrugs it off and continued on with his daily life thinking it was just one of those people who wants to seek attention. Months passed and the Earth was indeed shaken. Countless news about powerful earthquakes sprung one after another that led to the death of numerous people, reminding him of the post on social media. People on social media are theorizing what is happening, some think the world is changing that it's the work of reconstruction of geography and also because of climate change, some people say it is the Underworld trying to open a path above to wreak havoc on Earth, some even say that the shaking is caused by God's way of resetting the world back again little by little. One day the place where Nathanael lives is hit with a peculiar earthquake that shook the Earth as if it's about to break apart but after the quake there were no damage and no lives were lost, after the event, countless odd things have been happening that is threatening his daily life. Fearing for his life, he cripples in despair with the chaos happening around him. Nathanael is now faced with choices and death is at every corner if he doesn't move or learn how to stand up for himself.
