An accidental trip to a parallel world required wits from Faust Aldrich, a British high-school teenager, to stop an interdimensional invasion to other worlds - threatening Earth itself. When advanced technology clashed with traditional elemental magic, there would be no one to trust other than those who had enchanting eyes or undying loyalty.
And to Faust, a smile is a commodity he could not reap.

A kingdom across the sea, a man in pain clawing at a hated king who bears two shadows who protect him.
A child, born from a mother with the powers of the Gods, screaming at a blood-soaked bed.
A boy, a Prince, kind and full of the flame of life, sitting beneath a moon bug lit sky.
Darkness enfolds the lands, its grasp claiming the continent and making its way from an already broken island, only to be stopped by the hands of fate. The hands of the girl and the Prince, and their love for the people in need of protection.
This is their prophecy. This is their destiny and their fate depends on it. The Elemental rulers and their family are just beginning to find allies from unlikely and unimaginative places while creatures of myth and legend resurface from their campfire tales, and things aren't going as planned, so they'll have to find myths and legends of their own. Shouldn't be too hard.

NOTE FROM ME!
- I very much model my works to resemble published examples, so there are no notes in any chapters from me, trigger warnings for chapters, etc. Just the world my brain likes to escape to every now and then.
Thanks for reading!
