Kalem was born into a world where gods and monsters shaped the land with their endless wars, leaving mortals to suffer in their wake. Orphaned by divine wrath and hardened by survival, he refuses to be just another pawn in their cruel game. Armed with a burning will and a power he barely understands, Kalem sets out on a journey to rise above the gods themselves. Along the way, he battles fearsome creatures, forges uneasy alliances, and unearths secrets that challenge everything he knows about his world—and himself. But as he climbs higher, he must ask himself: is he becoming the hero he longs to be, or just another monster in a different form?
