Description

On his 18th birthday, a village boy is invited to the magnificent Silver Ball. But what seems like a gift of fate becomes a deadly trap set by the Council of Balance. Uncover the secret of the Shadow stirring within you and decide who will live - and who must die.

The world is divided into mysterious Spheres, where different races live under the strict supervision of the Council of Balance. The established order has never been questioned... until today.

You grew up in a remote village, always feeling like an outsider among ordinary people. On your 18th birthday, you receive an invitation to the magnificent Silver Ball. But behind the luxury of its halls lies a terrifying truth: the Council considers you a dangerous anomaly capable of disrupting the balance between the Spheres.

Now you must run. Along your journey, you will meet others who also failed to fit into the Council's perfect order. Each of them has their own secrets, fears, and reasons to fight. Whether they become your allies, rivals, close friends, or something more depends entirely on your choices.

Your journey begins in a quiet village and gradually grows into a struggle capable of changing the fate of every Sphere. The complete main story unfolds across three volumes.
