Legacy X: Volume 1 - A New Legacy (Revamp)
In a world where power defines not only what makes someone extraordinary but also what makes them feared, a quiet war brews beneath the surface. Xandai Eiko, a warrior burdened by the weight of history and ideals, sets out to form a team unlike any before-a group of individuals who will stand against chaos, protect the powerless, and prove that power can be wielded with conviction. But building something meaningful is never easy in a world that would rather see you fall than rise. Governments crack down harder on the powered. Civilians grow colder. And in the shadows, the mysterious Aris Company continues its classified experiments of which have already gone missing. While Xandai searches for allies, tensions flare within his circle. A disagreement over leadership causes Nita, his sister, to break away. Serin, the sharpshooter with a cold gaze, is sent to keep an eye on her, not to guide, but to ensure she doesn't fall too far. Meanwhile, new faces emerge. Some fight for order, others for vengeance, and some simply because there's nothing left to lose. As paths begin to intertwine, the first sparks of revolution ignite. The beginning of Legacy X is not the tale of heroes rising-it is the story of how hope fights to survive in the cracks of a broken world.
