(This is the first time I'm submitting a novel, so any feedback would be appreciated. I'll upload at least 1 chapter every Thursday. If I accidentally write too much then I'll be uploading multiple weekly.)

In the aftermath of the cataclysmic event that saw the world besieged by towering monoliths known as the Towers, humanity grapples with the harsh realities of its new existence. Among the survivors is Sebastian Azalith, a young man burdened by tragedy and forged in the crucible of despair.

Raised amidst the chaos and destruction wrought by the Towers, Sebastian finds himself adrift in a world devoid of hope and purpose. With the loss of his mother, crushed beneath the weight of the Towers' arrival, and the absence of his father, who vanished without a trace, Sebastian is left to fend for himself in a world turned upside down.

Forced into joining Varun Academy, a grim institution on the outskirts of civilization, Sebastian struggles to find his footing in a world that has left him behind. With no one to turn to and nowhere else to go, he reluctantly embarks on a journey of self-discovery and redemption, seeking solace in the only place he has left to call home.

As Sebastian grapples with the despair of his shattered world, he discovers a dark and forbidden power within himself—the ability to devour the life force of any living creature. With each life he consumes, Sebastian gains strength and power, his soul tarnished by the darkness that consumes him.

Leaving behind the safety of the academy, Sebastian ventures into the Towers, his heart heavy with the weight of his past and the uncertainty of his future. With each floor he conquers, he faces despair and agony, his soul torn asunder by the darkness that surrounds him.

But as Sebastian delves deeper into the depths of the Towers, he begins to unravel the mysteries of his past and unlock the true potential that lies dormant within him. With each victory he achieves, he grows stronger, more ruthless, and more determined to defy the odds and carve out his own destiny in a world consumed by darkness.

But as Sebastian's power grows, so too does the darkness that threatens to consume him. Haunted by visions of a future shrouded in despair, he must confront the ultimate truth—that the path to power comes with a price, and the line between saviour and destroyer grows ever thinner.
