The Fallen Claim

Years after the rebellion that changed every realm, peace finally settled among gods, demigods, and mortals. The Founders built families, protected the balance they fought to save, and watched their children-the Alphas-grow up believing the war belonged to the past.

They were wrong.

Everything changes when the Founders suddenly disappear without explanation, leaving behind only a warning no one understands. As the Alphas search for answers, they uncover a terrifying truth: demigods across the realms are being hunted. Some are found dead with their powers completely drained, while others vanish without a trace. Someone has learned how to steal divine abilities-and they are growing stronger with every victim.

Unlike the enemies before, these threats are not gods or monsters. They are mortals armed with advanced technology capable of copying demigod powers. For the first time, divine blood is no longer an advantage. It is the reason they are being targeted.

As fear spreads, the Alphas are forced into responsibilities they were never prepared for. Aetherion begins seeing visions of a future consumed by war, where the Founders are gone and the next generation must fight alone. At the center of every vision stands Velorieakhae "Lori" Austin, whose abilities continue to evolve beyond anything known among demigods. With powers tied to darkness, aura manipulation, elemental control, and time itself, Lori slowly becomes both their greatest hope and their greatest danger.

As hidden betrayals and long-buried secrets begin to surface, the Alphas discover the enemy's true objective: not simply to destroy demigods, but to erase them completely and replace them with something man-made.

With another Claiming Ceremony approaching, the Academy once again becomes the center of fate.

Because this time, the battle is no longer about saving the realms.

It is about proving that demigods deserve to exist at all.
