Synopsis

In a world teetering on the brink of annihilation, desperation and courage collide in a tale of survival and supernatural warfare. What the reader can expect: - Multiple PoV with strong MC and weaker supporting cast- World power scales so that MC does not remain OP for too long- Post-apocalyptic setting where "magic" is  relegated to a few  Synopsis:After mankind tore a rift into the unknown, the world was overrun by demons that escaped through the breach. Warren Orlock and his friends once saw the MetaTEC—an intriguing new device—as nothing more than a playful gadget to stay connected as their lives drifted apart. But when demons began to overrun cities, burning civilization to the ground, the MetaTEC unexpectedly revealed a far more important purpose. It wasn’t a toy at all—it was mankind’s last shield in an unwinnable war. Too late to stop the devastation, humanity was reduced to scattered outposts of survivors, clinging to the ruins of the old world. Most had given up hope, resigned to watching the world burn. But then, after vanishing for a decade, the enigmatic Runelord returns with a cryptic message for Warren—a mission that could reshape the fate of a dying species. As Warren wrestles with doubt, anger, and the bitter losses that haunt him, the question gnawing at him isn’t just whether he can save humanity—it’s whether he even wants to try.
