Magic is in their genes. But destiny lies far beyond the treetops.
In the strange and wondrous world of Mestrya—a flat disk cradled inside a hollow sphere where sky and sea meet at the edge—magic isn't just learned. It's biological.
Eighteen-year-old Krochus has never left the towering rainforest of his home. Isolated, socially awkward, and nearly magicless in a world where everyone wields power, he expects nothing more from life than quiet obscurity. But when a mysterious stone icon falls from the sky, delivering a vision of a forgotten temple and an enigmatic cube, he’s thrust into a journey that will change the fate of Mestrya forever.
Reluctantly joined by Takree, a hardened bounty hunter with a buried heartache; Shael, a brilliant outcast whose mind hungers for knowledge; Xeek, a magicless wild-child who knows how to survive anything; and the ancient hue-kin Zukis, who knows more than he says—their path leads them across bioluminescent swamps, ancient cities, and tropical wilderness. All while a silent threat stirs in the corners of the world.
As secrets unravel and bonds are forged, Krochus must confront not just the dangers of Mestrya, but the fears that keep him from becoming who he’s meant to be.
Epic fantasy meets deep character storytelling in this sweeping journey of wonder, danger, and self-discovery. Welcome to Mestrya—where magic breathes, and destiny calls.
