Heaven's Path
On Earth, there exists Astra Sera. A child prodigy turned chief astronomer who wants to discover this world, who wants to escape her reality to connect with those that dwell beyond the stars. In pursuit of this, she predicts a cosmic anomaly, one that defies physics and hints at the heavens that lie beyond human comprehension. But Astra Sera isn't the most normal astronomer. In her pursuit of the heavens, she has developed an unnatural connection with it. And, in her search to resonate with the divine, she has lost touch of human connection, even for those who she cares about. Suddenly, the barriers between reality shifts! In a terrifying cosmic event, everyone on Earth gets transported to a world that is entirely supernatural! One that combines the rigid rules of science and the strange fluidity of magic. The rationale (or lack thereof) of humans and the absurd nature of the divine! It is a world that has Gods, demigods, Angels, constellations and mysterious beings all fighting for dominance! A world that has vast beauties of technology in the far future, but abundant dangers in trying to reach the higher realms! A world that has little opportunities to get more powerful but has endless ways of turning insane! Will Astra continue to reach for the heavens as the world that is touched by it is constantly riddled with madness, darkness, corruption and insanity, or will she go against her nature and try to understand the very thing that makes us human-connection?
