Eight strangers. One broken multiverse. A sword that guides them past the point of no return.

When James Garland wakes in a dying world, he’s given a blade that can slice through reality itself—and the task of pulling survivors from the brink of annihilation. Each world brings new dangers and new faces, but the group that forms around him is anything but united.

Haunted by their pasts and altered by strange powers, the eight must navigate twisted science, rewritten memories, and a threat that seems to anticipate their every move. As trust frays and tensions rise, James clings to one belief: that every life has value. But in a multiverse shaped by compromise, mercy might be the most dangerous choice of all.

A character-driven fantasy about found family, moral conviction, and the cost of holding onto hope in a world that keeps falling apart.
