"Whispers of the Forsaken"

In a sprawling empire where beauty masks betrayal and power is balanced on a blade's edge, whispers of a long-buried truth begin to stir. Rin Soryu, a brilliant but overlooked apothecary, is drawn into a chilling mystery when a noble dies under impossible circumstances—his body warm, his blood strange, and his death officially erased.



Forced into an uneasy alliance with Kael Renjou, a cold and relentless imperial investigator, Rin is pulled deeper into the empire’s hidden rot—where alchemy isn’t just science, but a weapon, and secrets are deadlier than blades. As nobles fall one by one and forbidden knowledge resurfaces, fate begins to twist around them both.



But the more they uncover, the more the line between enemy and ally begins to blur… and when every truth has a cost, some choices will demand more than either of them is ready to give.
