"Some dreams are echoes. Others are doors."

Lucian Oakheart , who was terminally ill suddenly started seeing memories of a strange world which felt familiar and unfamiliar at the same time.
It was of world without magic or swords, but a world run by science. But then he suddenly woke up. As he was recollecting what happened just now a strange shadow suddenly swallowed his world whole and then emerge a shadowy figure saying, "You have become the cursed one".

Now Lucian stands on the edge of something far greater than he understands. Are these dreams fragments of another existence, or a warning of what's to come? And what does it mean to be cursed when you are already running out of time?

His fragile life is about to unravel-and the truth waiting beyond the shadows may change not only his fate, but the fate of the world itself.
