In the quiet village of Willowbrook, nineteen-year-old Apollo Frost has always known he was different, seeing shimmering threads of light around ancient artifacts that others cannot perceive. But when he accidentally activates a mysterious device during the village's centennial celebration, Apollo discovers he is Veilborn, one of the legendary few who can manipulate the very fabric of reality itself.
Hunted by the oppressive Order of the Veil and a power-hungry magistrate seeking to weaponize dimensional energy, Apollo must flee everything he's ever known. Joined by his loyal friends and guided by a mysterious woman with secrets of her own, he embarks on a perilous journey to uncover the truth about his heritage.
As dimensional barriers begin to fracture and reality itself starts to unravel, Apollo faces an impossible choice: master abilities that could save the world or risk losing himself completely to prevent another catastrophic collapse of civilization. In a world where ancient technology and mystical powers intertwine, the fate of all existence rests in his hands.
