Eden Theory: ArcanePunk Progression Fantasy Novel/RW

2356. Nearly 300 years since Humanity lost the surface from the invading monsters that nearly snuffed all vestiges of humanity out. Guns, airstrikes, and even nukes failed to deter the Horrors as they spread to nearly every inch of Earth's soil. What was once the most dominant and abundant of species now lives sheltered in massive underground cities and intricate tunnel systems. These bastions of Humanity's defiance, shelter the remnants of civilization by drawing upon a source of power known as Mana.

Discovered the same day the Horrors emerged, many would say it drew the strange portals that brought upon The Collapse, while others, a merciful act of god to empower humanity to resist extinction. Whatever the case, special humans known as Awakened wield mana to defend humanity and carve out a sense of normalcy from the wreckage of their lost civilization.

Jack is one of these beings, however unlike his fellow brethren, Jack is unknowingly a Harbinger. A walking, talking, time bomb, that when blown, could unleash a cataclysm that could finally finish what the Collapse could not.

The end of Humanity.

Unless of course Jack learns to control his power, then it's anyone's guess as to what he will become, Humanities' Savior, or it's Harbinger of the End. Or maybe dead in a government Black-site if the bomb collar around his neck explodes.
