Paradox Sovereign

Bleeding out in the snow beneath three cold, unfamiliar moons, he claws at his fractured memories like a long forgotten dream. Had he been a king? A monster? Or just a ghost of something greater? The harder he tries to remember, the more it slips away—like trying to recall a dream upon waking, where only the feeling lingers, raw and unresolved. A stranger drags him from death’s edge—a girl with snow white hair. She doesn’t know him. He doesn’t even know himself. But when he reaches for this world’s magic, something deeper answers. Not just mana—but the echo of an old, hungry power. The Covenant calls to him. The only path forward with each rank he claims, his past cuts into him like shards of broken glass. But the higher he climbs, the more the world buckles around him. Luck twists. Reality shudders. Now, hunted by gods and men alike, Ardyn faces the cruelest question of all: Is he rebuilding the man he was—or digging his own grave all over again?
