RISE FROM THE VOID
Zara Lucas
In the gleaming sky-city of Celestara, the elite discard anything unwanted without remorse,broken tools, faded finery, even people. To Xander, a scrappy orphan from the shadowed under-rings, those castoffs are treasures worth fighting for. His mentor, old Harlan, always warned: stay low and stay alive.
When Harlan is murdered by a masked killer, Xander is framed and condemned. He's thrown into the Void,a vast, toxic chasm of endless refuse where the fallen never return.
Xander wakes amid choking fumes and grotesque “junkwraiths”: hulking monsters of rusted metal, rotting fabric, and seething decay. As the beasts close in, a battle-hardened woman named Veyra saves him. She fights with a “Remnant Blade”, a weapon born from a cherished relic, its power drawn from the soul of what was lost.
Xander bonds with his own Remnant,twin bracers that let him reshape discarded junk into deadly tools. He joins the Exiles, a band of survivors hunting wraiths in the depths, clinging to dreams of escape.
Driven by vengeance, Xander vows to climb the poisoned layers of the Void, expose the true killer, and make Celestara's highborn pay,proving the trash they threw away can rise to shatter their world.
