Description

In a world where everything has a god,no one is ever truly alone.

From life and death to ash and stone—if it can be conceived, it is governed.Each concept, each object, each fleeting thought is watched over by a divine consciousness. And in this age, survival depends on it. To live, to work,to matter—you must be chosen. Blessed. Claimed.

Because those without a god… are nothing.

Solaris is one of the forsaken.

In a century where every soul hears the whisper of something greater, his prayers are met with silence. No presence. No sign. Not even rejection—just an endless, suffocating void. Unheard of. Impossible.

Without a patron, he is powerless. Unemployable. Expendable. The world is vast, merciless, and ruled by beings that refuse to acknowledge him. By all logic, Solaris should fade quietly into obscurity—another life swept away by time.

But something is wrong.

Because when the Sun turns its gaze upon him… it questions.

When the Moon answers… mysteries align.

And in that moment, Solaris begins to understand wisps of the truth buried beneath creation itself.

He was never meant to kneel before the gods.

He was never meant to be chosen.

He was meant to stand beyond them.

With a power that can silence the divine itself, Solaris is no longer a man seeking purpose—

He is the beginning of something the gods have long feared.

A rebellion.
