"The world is yours...to destroy."

4 years ago, Vance's mother went missing. Everyone thought she was dead...but Vance knew better. What he did not know was that his search for her would take him across multiple parallel dimensions filled with psychotic killers, demented warlords, righteous angels and bloodthirsty demons. As Vance learns more about his lineage and his new surroundings, the stakes will rise, until his journey takes him to the end of the universe itself, and he comes face to face with the one who created it.

Those who enjoy descriptive, deep stories with plot threads linked across multiple chapters and strategic, action-packed battles will not be disappointed here. As human as it is otherworldly, at its core this story is about family, love, loss, and growth midst tragedy.

Naomi respawned her orbs and twisted her fingers, spinning them. "Your father sent me here, Vance. He's very disappointed in you."


"Bullshit," Vance shot back. "Tell me what's going on."


"I'll tell you nothing!" Naomi shrieked, sending the orbs flying toward Vance.


"Vance!" Eden shouted, scrambling to stand up.


Vance stood his ground, keeping his eyes on Naomi. Psynergy began to resonate in his arms, and as the orbs closed in, he reached up and caught two in each hand. His fists glowed and he lowered them, gripping the psychic weapons like a child's marbles. 


"What is this?" Vance smirked. "Some kind of joke?"


In the next moment, Vance squeezed his fists together, shattering the orbs to pieces. Psynergy dissipated into the atmosphere, and Naomi’s jaw slipped downward.
