Home/Alternate World/Chronicles of the Fractured Firmament

by Chung Vuong·Translated by Novel AI Studio
In the gravity-defying skies of Aethelgard, humanity survives on floating islands powered by dying celestial hearts. Kaelen is a low-born salvager who plummets into the cloud-choked Abyss, only to survive by bonding with a forbidden, sentient void-parasite. This parasitic entity grants him the terrifying ability to manipulate the density and gravity of anything he touches, but it demands a steep price: his own memories. As the tyrannical High Clerisy begins harvesting the remaining celestial hearts - dooming the lower islands to plunge into the crushing depths below - Kaelen must rise. To protect his sister and his home, he must navigate a treacherous world of sky-pirates, corrupt zealots, and the creeping rot within his own mind. Every time Kaelen uses his god-like gravity powers to fight back, he forgets another piece of himself. He must wage a war to save his world before he completely forgets why he is fighting it in the first place.
