For centuries, humanity has fought a losing war against the alien Xa’tarii. Every attempt to unite has ended in failure, every plan foiled by betrayal, greed, or fear. 

Talon Graves is one man trapped in an endless cycle, reliving the fight over and over in a desperate attempt to find the path that will save humanity.

This is his story, from the first life where he was just a kid. To the hundredth and beyond, trapped in an endless cycle. 

Each step, each decision, brings him closer to breaking the cycle or losing himself entirely.

Perhaps even both.

Will Talon’s hope be enough to defy fate, or will humanity fall to its own flaws once more?

Hello everyone! If you’ve made it this far into the summary, and I still haven’t convinced you to click on that first chapter, let me share a little more about what you can expect from this book.

This story offers a unique power system, one inspired by cultivation but with my own twist to make it truly distinct. It’s a universe where intergalactic warfare takes center stage, featuring everything from the awe-inspiring World Enders who can destroy planets with a thought, to the smallest soldiers fighting tooth and nail for survival. Every individual matters, and every battle leaves its mark.

In this universe, it’s all about scale. Even a world-ending Super is just one piece of a much larger puzzle. When wars span entire galaxies and civilizations vie for dominance across universal borders, the impact of a single Super, no matter how powerful, is often a morale boost or the elimination of key high-profile targets, including enemy World Enders themselves. 

Victory here isn’t determined by raw strength alone but by strategy, sacrifice, and the countless individuals who shape the tide of war.

So, if you’re looking for a story that combines relentless action, intricate power systems, and the weight of interstellar stakes, then this might just be the book for you. I hope you’ll give it a chance, click that first chapter, and let’s dive in together.

P.S. I’ll be writing this for the long haul, so if you’re expecting a gritty, determined, and powerful individual right from the start, this isn’t that kind of story. Instead, you’ll follow a journey of growth, struggle, and transformation as Talon learns to navigate a brutal universe and carve his place in it.

Enjoy!

Fragments of Eternity

Zero clapped his hands one final time, his booming voice snapping everyone to attention. "Now, get settled! Your barracks are down the hall. You'll get your assignments tomorrow. But you will still have to wait another week to get everything properly started as to give every faction their chance to receive and intergrate the new recruits. Timetables vary per team, so that means you will be assigned your resting hours, your class times, and your recreational time, whatever's left will be upto me and the captains, so be prepared!"

As the cadets began to disperse, Talon lingered near the window, his eyes fixed on the massive colosseum rising above the walls at the edge of the horizon.

"Welcome to Faction Zero," Zero called over his shoulder as he walked away, his voice echoing down the hall. "Now follow me!"

Talon exhaled, his hands clenching into fists. This sounded nothing like what he thought it would be, but he couldn't help but be excited for what's to come.

Welcome to Faction Zero (2)
