Infos

High above the fractured islands of Aerilon hangs the Radiant Spire, a marvel of engineering and a monument to Elara Deaver's brilliance-and her deepest shame.  Within its shimmering walls, the Starborn, ethereal beings of immense power, are imprisoned, their life force fueling the spire's protective shield.  Haunted by their silent screams, Elara returns to her creation, a pariah summoned to fix her broken masterpiece.
But Aerilon is more than just geographically fractured.  The Starborn's captivity has poisoned the land, plunging its vibrant tribes into despair and unleashing storms of unprecedented fury.  Elara faces an impossible choice: restore the spire and condemn the Starborn to eternal suffering, or shatter their prison and risk unleashing unimaginable chaos.
Her former mentor, Tristan Alexander, offers a glimmer of hope - a path to harmonize technology and magic, to save both Aerilon and its ethereal prisoners.  But his solution is untested, a dangerous gamble that could shatter the delicate balance holding Aerilon aloft.
Meanwhile, on the windswept plains below, Tristan's sister, Victoria, leads a desperate fight for survival.  Gifted with a rare sensitivity to Aerilon's ethereal energies, Victoria's visions reveal the Starborn's tragic history, igniting a rebellion that threatens to topple the ruling Council.
As Elara delves into the spire's hidden depths, she uncovers a terrible truth - a dying civilization's desperate bargain for survival, a sacrifice shrouded in secrecy.  Her path converges with Victoria's as a catastrophic storm forces Elara to unleash a small group of Starborn, a desperate act with unforeseen consequences.
Caught between loyalty and conscience, Elara must choose her side.  Will she perpetuate a cosmic injustice or risk everything to forge a new path, a future where technology and magic coexist, where the Starborn are not prisoners but partners?  The fate of Aerilon hangs in the balance, a testament to the enduring power of hope in the face of despair, the courage to choose justice over survival.
