Vale wakes in a world where humanity fights monstrous Spawn, wielding supernatural abilities forged through deadly Trials. Unlike others, his power is passive—utterly invisible to anything beyond basic senses. No reflection, no shadow, no trace. In a land where strength is survival, Vale’s ability seems useless. Forced to navigate brutal battles alongside warriors far beyond him, he scrapes by with wit and desperation. Yet as he struggles through the Trials, whispers of his forgotten past taunt him. Fragments surface—hints of something greater, something *wrong*. The deeper he ventures, the more the world’s hidden truths unravel, revealing a cosmology where every gain demands a sacrifice. But the Spawn are not the only threat. The Trials themselves watch, and Vale’s absence from their sight may be the key to uncovering what was stolen from him—or the reason it was taken in the first place.
