So, the day has finally come.

Warrior,

Welcome to a brand-new adventure. My name is Brian, but you can call me Cion (like Scion, but without the S). I welcome you to Anenas (a'knee'nus)—a realm once renowned, now forgotten, and split into land fragments called Dimensions.

I want to express my gratitude to you for diving into this project. There are many other books that I'm sure have caught your eye and landed on your reading list, but you decided to give this a shot. And for that, I am grateful. 🙏🏾

After years of world-building, writing, and refining, I can finally share the initial installment of a saga experience with you.

Magic and mystery collide as fate awakens—but, Warrior, are you ready to step into the unknown?

Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on Royal Road.

Throughout this journey, you'll encounter emboldened terms that hold weight in the progression of the story.

For example, Äethas (ate'thus) is a recurring term throughout the story. It is described as the inner pyre of a vessel, bestowing the gift of creation.

There will be multiple character POVs—most written in first-person present tense, with some sections in third-person.

To understand the visual and aesthetic, the setting takes place in the past—the 2000s with a 90s feel. You'll find elements of both real-world and anime influences woven into the narrative.

I welcome feedback, constructive criticism, and open discussion. However, I will not tolerate harassment, verbal/emotional/mental abuse of any kind, or misconduct. You will be blocked.

Trigger warnings will be listed when deemed necessary. There will be some religious overtones in the story—not as a means of condemnation, but to set the foundation of the world.

If anything changes or updates arise, I'll be sure to let you know.

New chapters/prompts will be released episodically daily at 7 PM CST / 5 PM PST, unless stated otherwise.

Happy reading, and let's dive into Anenas. 😌
