Manifestation

Raysha will do whatever it takes to fix her broken soul, even if it means venturing into the unknown with nothing but her brother, an enchanted water bottle, and her fierce determination. The only one without the ability to cultivate aeon from the world, Raysha has been ostracized her whole life for her weakness. In a world where true masters of aeon have slaughtered gods, Raysha's future in her village is limited to babysitting pre-awakened children. Desperate for a chance to prove her worth, she leaps at the chance to join her brother at the Academy, where he believes they can find a cure for her soul. It will only take the crystalised heart of an ancient spirit, lost to the world thousands of years ago. Armed with an enchanted water bottle and a stubborn attitude, Raysha sets out to prove that she is more than just a second-rate outcast.

It's time for Raysha to embrace her power. After an arduous journey to integrate an ancient spirit heart into her core, Raysha sets out to prove her worth in the Academy's tournament. Raysha must find a path, forge her own techniques, and advance to the Initiate. As the clock ticks down to the start of the contest, will she be able to prepare and overcome the fierce competition from the student elite? Can she control the vast ocean of aeon with sheer stubbornness and claim victory? Provided the tournament is a straightforward content of will and power, Raysha is determined to find a way. Political incidents, internal and international, are something she'd like to stay in her past.

Bridges have been burnt, and Raysha needs out. With the opportunity to travel and leave Darius behind, she jumps at the change and drags the Misfits along with her. Tension is rising between the nations of Erasted and Nhami, and problems plague the border towns. Through it all winds one question she cares about above all others: Why are spirits being hunted? And how can she find a way to protect them and strike down those who dare try and harvest their hearts?
