Synopsis

Revised blurb On the sentient planet Tethia, a mysterious anomaly has ravaged the land, aging survivors by fifty years and plunging Maldinia into chaos. Barron Alarie, a disillusioned architect, sees opportunity in the turmoil. Amid glowing forests and treacherous bogs, he plots to rise to Overseer, wielding power to reshape a decaying enterprise in his image. But as a deadly mushroom infestation spreads and bureaucracy tightens its grip, Barron's ambitions draw him deeper into a web of deceit and danger. Presiding over the fractured kingdom is a malleable Queen with dangerous secrets and her Warden, whose obsession with the glowing phenomena leads him down a dangerous path. As ambition challenges his morality, Barron must confront the price of his dreams-and decide if it's a cost worth paying. In Maldinia, the greatest dangers lie not in what is seen, but in the truths buried beneath.
