Origin Defiant

Nev always believed death was the end.
He was wrong.

The moment his life is stolen in a back-alley, the world he knows collapses, and an infinite one opens. A cold, endless void pulls him in, plants a strange shard inside his chest, and sends him into another reality entirely. Another world. Another version of himself. Another chance that is never really a choice.

He becomes a wanderer of lives.
A soul forced to transmigrate whenever he dies.

Each world gives him a new body, a new identity, and a new version of the one person he failed to protect: Lila. His little sister in one life, a stranger in another, yet always someone precious. And every world hides the same silent truth.
Something is hunting her.
Something ancient.
Something patient.

And somewhere above the worlds, unseen beings watch him struggle, amused by every failure.

Nev refuses to accept the role they wrote for him.

From his first death to the last world he will ever stand in, he chooses only one path.
Find Lila.
Break fate.
Defy the origin they forced on him.

Because if free will is impossible across infinite realities...
he will become the one who rewrites reality itself.
