Where the Starfall Veins Run

I, Lorian Kostic, have one philosophy: minimum effort, maximum comfort. My days are a pleasant blur of napping through cartography lectures and sketching maps of imaginary coastlines. That life shattered the morning a fleet of black cars descended on my tiny apartment, bringing with them a dying man I’d never met - my grandfather, Alaric Voron. He named me his heir, sole inheritor of the Voron Endowment, a multi-trillion-dollar secret society built on centuries of legendary treasure-hunting. My inheritance isn't just money; it's an awakening. Suddenly, I can see the world as my ancestors did: a living map of shimmering 'Starfall Veins,' pathways of energy leading to priceless artifacts and hidden wonders. But the family is a labyrinth of ancient rules and lethal rivalries. Guided by my grandfather's stern but beautiful archivist, Ines, I must master my powers and my new responsibilities. With every new discovery, however, I sense a hidden danger, a shadow within our own ranks. Can a man who's avoided responsibility his entire life navigate a world of cutthroat treasure hunters and uncover the traitor threatening to bleed the family legacy dry?
