You must die to evolve. You must fall to rise.
When the black sun cracks the sky and the world begins to rot, seventeen-year-old Zareth is left with nothing—except a broken sword, a dead brother, and the memory of a beast that devoured him alive.
But death is only the beginning.
Caught inside a Sacrificial Loop, Zareth awakens moments before each brutal end—with no power, no stats, and no choice but to fight again. Each death scars him deeper. Each life teaches him more. And something ancient is watching…
In a world where monsters evolve based on your fear, and systems lie as much as they guide, survival means losing everything—again and again. Until loss itself becomes a weapon.
Because Zareth won’t run anymore.
He’ll become the echo that breaks the cycle.
He’ll kill gods if he has to.
And if the price of power is pain?
Then let the world bleed.
