Light, dark, fire, water… A world is formed from myriad sources.

Light is blinding, the dark deceives, fire burns, and water stifles. These sources are dangerous, but if we could comprehend their meaning, their essence, could such power be harvested for ourselves?

Cultivating even a trace of their meaning would allow anyone to rank above mortals. But what of the entire strand? All of the fire, all of the light? Is this the key to reigning supreme?

Through the ever-changing seasons and falling tides, a man weaves his path through the star-crossed strands of fate.

From a planet sundered into black, white, and grey, this tempered world shall know new Spring!

Note: Slow burn at the start.

This book is heavily inspired by Reverend Insanity and Lord of the Mysteries.

The first arc is quite slow as there is so much to explain about this magic system if I were to introduce it naturally. The real plot begins after book 1 ends.

What chapter does it end at? You'll know when you see it. Book 2 starts off with a bang!
