Synopsis
An idealised world populated by ageless spirits built on a broken history. It is an Aeon's sacred duty to safeguard their Sphere and their people, but some shadows are not so easily forgotten. The future is shifting, but what happens to a world that was never meant to change?
The nine Spheres thrive in a timeless harmony, separated by the infinite Void but bound together by the endless power of the Source. A peaceful unchanging utopia populated daeva, ageless spirits born of thought and possessing incredible potential, the well-structured worlds thrive in the golden protection of their Aeons. The Golden Legend is a thoughtful reminder of the value of the King’s guidance. The tragic history of the Shattering of the Old Kingdom is relegated to allegory by all.
The Aeons themselves see it differently, however. Each one an aspect of the Source contained in an individual and charged with the power of maintaining their Word, the Aeons see the world somewhat differently than their daeva counterparts. When the Aeon of the ninth Sphere has a vision of an apocalyptic darkness threatening their carefully constructed peace, her determination to change this grim future sets in motion a chain of events that will forever alter the very nature of their world. At the centre of it all is Michael, the Aeon of Hod and the son of the King. After an unexpected upset in the balance of power, Michael must learn to make peace with himself to reconcile what has been with what is in search of the truth, all while navigating the plans and ambitions of his fellows.
