The Boy the World Forgot

Brady Densley

Kael Veyr has spent his life protecting his younger brother. Now, he may be the only person who still remembers him. Lucen is sick—but no healer can explain what is happening to him. He is growing weaker, parts of his body are beginning to fade, and something about his illness feels fundamentally wrong. Kael refuses to accept that his brother is simply dying. If there is an answer somewhere in Elyrion, he intends to find it. His search leads him to Marrowgate, the Ashen Wing guild, and a world far larger and more dangerous than he ever imagined. Monsters stalk forgotten places. Ancient ruins hide secrets better left buried. Powerful guilds measure warriors from Iron to Heavenmarked. And beneath everything lies something most people don't even know exists. Then a stranger with silver eyes looks directly at Kael and calls him “the boy with the hollow brother.” His next words are worse. “Heaven has noticed you.” Kael only wanted to save Lucen. But the deeper he searches for a cure, the clearer it becomes that his brother's illness is connected to something ancient—and that whatever is watching them may have been waiting for Kael all along. To save the person he loves most, Kael will have to uncover the truth behind a world that was never meant to be seen.
