Before time itself, the forces of Yin and Yang fell out of balance, giving birth to the universe and two opposing beings: Illumis, the Life-Keeper, creator of worlds and the Guardians of Nature, and Abyssor, the Doombringer, a living void bent on unmaking existence. Their war shattered galaxies, and though Abyssor endured, the Guardians fell, their powers scattering into mortal bloodlines. Ages later, as Abyssor’s darkness stirs once more, five children are born bearing the last embers of the Guardians’ light. Thrust into a world on the brink of collapse, they must choose whether to rise as creation’s final defense or become witnesses to its end.
