The Pale Paradox

REIL_SJ
The world he knew is gone. His name, his face, his family—all wiped away in a moment of betrayal and death. Now, in the weak body of a young boy, he finds himself in a new life surrounded by strangers who become his friends and allies. But the longing to return home gnaws at his heart, and the fragments of a violent past lurk at the edges of his memory. His search for belonging and truth takes him deeper into the unknown, where he learns that the lines between dimensions, identities, and realities blur. To survive and find closure, he must unravel the secrets of who—or what—he truly is, and face the terrifying choice of what it means to belong.
