Corebound : Shards of Destiny

On a day like any other, the world goes silent. Phones freeze mid call. Televisions flicker to black. Every device dies…until a single voice cuts through the void.

A civilization light years away has shattered its command across the stars. They look human,but their glowing eyes and strange markings betray something alien. Their demand is simple. Terrifying. Send fifteen teenagers. Not soldiers, Not leaders, Teenagers.

Governments obey. Families shatter. Among the chosen is fifteen year-old Akachi Edochie, a stubborn and reckless boy who would fight even a God to protect his loved ones, even if it means leaving them  behind…maybe forever.

Their task is simple. uncover the planet’s buried secrets, or die trying. Thrown into a world of living jungles, oceans that breathe, and ruins humming with power, Akachi and the disoriented teens have only one option to survive, to master Malevra, an alien energy that twists the body, scars the soul, and cheats death itself. To embrace it is to change forever.

To endure , Akachi must conquer Malevra, confront the darkness within, and navigate the fragile line between those who could save him…and those who could betray him.

Because the deadliest enemy may not be the alien world at all. It may be the people sent to save it.
