In the heart of the desert lies Ruh Al-Saqr, an ancient city resilient against the relentless sands and rival powers that covet its riches. Miran, a fifteen-year-old boy with dreams bigger than the city itself, finds his life upended when invaders destroy everything he holds dear. As the world around him crumbles, he uncovers a truth hidden deep within his family's legacy: he is the heir to an ancient lineage of Celestials, beings born from the delicate balance between light and shadow.
Guided by the whispers of his mother and the echoes of forgotten realms, Miran must navigate a path of courage, belief, and an awakening power that draws from the very elements of the universe. With his sister Hira lost and their once-great city in flames, Miran faces a perilous journey through betrayal, ancient secrets, and the darkness that threatens to consume him from within.
Can he find his sister and unite the strength they both possess to restore balance? Or will the shadow that corrupted his father take hold and lead them all to ruin?
"Rising from the ashes, Miran must confront his heritage, battle his fears, and learn that the greatest light comes from within-even when it casts the deepest shadow."

Concordian of the Two Ends
150 years... That's how long the war has been going on in Equilibria: between the United Federation of Tachyon, a technologically advanced empire, and the Arcane Order of Seirion, a powerful magical empire. This long and unending war of conquest and expansion has led to many suffering in this world, as those who were in between them were squashed underneath the feet of the marching force. Occasionally, some people in this world may obtain resolites, a mysterious white crystal capable of transforming into powerful melee weapons. Although its inner workings and reason for existence are unknown, those with resolites, also known as resolutors, were hunted down by the empires as a key to creating elite warriors enhanced with the power of resolites. One such resolutor was Lorian Ashwood, who had obtained a particularly powerful resolite after his home village, Tragula, was destroyed by a mysterious ray of light coming from the sky, destroying everything in its path, including the soldiers from both empires fighting to capture his village. Nobody, not even the powerful empires, knew who was behind it. Eager to know what happened, Lorian ended up joining an aviator group known as the Strife Striders, and together, they went on a journey across the two empires to seek the truth as they completed a task from the King of Machiaville. In their journey, Lorian got to see the world from different perspectives as he interacted with imperial locals, while fighting against the Imperial forces and authority, who were constantly seeking to capture him for the reason mentioned before. Eventually, his eye-opening and arduous journey would develop him into becoming a resolute and just person, known as a Concordian. __________________________________________ Concordian of the Two Ends is now available on both Wattpad and Royal Road!
