Haunted by a tragic past and hunted for a power he can't control, Ryden is thrust into a struggle to unite a fractured realm. As he's drawn back to Lucien, his first love and the radiant bearer of the Sun, Ryden discovers his destiny is tied to forbidden research, lost sacrifices, and the looming threat of the Obsidian Order.

Book I: Starfall by dmcle145

When the heavens fracture, a mortal mapmaker and a fallen queen must redraw the stars-or watch the world collapse. Kael has spent his life charting the night sky, searching for patterns in the chaos left by the skyquake that killed his sister. He trusts only in ink, parchment, and the cold certainty of the stars. Until the night a blazing swan of light crashes into the mountains-and a woman steps from the wreckage claiming to be the Sky Queen. Aurelya was once sovereign of the Celestial Court, chosen by the Rhythm itself to keep the heavens in balance. Betrayed by her kin and bound by ancient chains, she has fallen to the mortal world with her power shattered and her name erased. To return, she must reclaim her lineage from a constellation long forgotten-and confront the gods who cast her down. Drawn together by grief and defiance, Kael and Aurelya uncover a truth the Court has hidden for centuries: the stars are not fixed, but can be rewritten. Each map Kael draws reshapes the heavens, weakening the constellations that betrayed her. But every stroke of ink carries a cost, and the gods will not surrender their dominion without war. As time unravels and the sky itself begins to fall, Kael and Aurelya must choose: restore the throne, save the mortal world, or attempt the impossible third path-remaking the Rhythm so that love and legacy can both endure. Epic, intimate, and myth-soaked, Starfall is the opening movement of a trilogy about grief, rebellion, and the power of rewriting fate.
