In a world where death means starting over, betrayal is worse than dying. When Kurokai logged into Eidolon Realms, a hyper-realistic VR world, he dreamed of honor, adventure, and maybe just maybe love. Instead, he was betrayed by the girl he trusted most, branded a monster and a criminal. His gear stolen, his name smeared, Kurokai is forced to survive alone in a party-based game designed to break the solitary. But Kurokai doesn't break. He laughs. He grins through stitched scars and hidden runes, wielding secrets and forbidden skills no sane player would touch. In the shadows of ruined dungeons and player-killer territories, he plots a twisted path to redemption or revenge. When he frees Nyssara, a slave girl with secrets of her own, the two outcasts forge a bond that might save them both - or drag them deeper into a game where betrayal is currency and trust is fatal. In Eidolon Realms, there are no heroes. Only survivors. And Kurokai will make sure his enemies never forget it.
