Naelis has spent her life moving through the spaces authority no longer plans for-corridors that endure not because they are supported, but because they adapt quietly enough to be ignored. When the city's governing structure begins to fail, it does not collapse in fire or rebellion. Instead, it tightens-consolidating care, narrowing recognition, and redefining which lives count as part of the system it is willing to protect.
What begins as silence becomes policy. What begins as efficiency becomes exclusion.
As authority enforces order through selective recognition and calculated containment, the city fractures along invisible lines. Some spaces are reinforced, stabilized, and named legitimate. Others are left to survive without response, their endurance rendered illegible by design. Naelis watches as adaptation is mistaken for resilience, resilience is exploited, and survival outside the system is reframed as failure rather than consequence.
At the center of this transformation stands Iscor, an architect of governance who understands the system's dependencies even as he participates in its decisions. Between him and Naelis grows a quiet, devastating tension-not of romance fulfilled, but of recognition denied, as they find themselves aligned with incompatible truths about responsibility, legitimacy, and cost.
When the system is finally forced to confront a failure it cannot ignore, it chooses coherence over truth-and seals the consequences in place.
Book One is a dark, slow-burn fantasy of power without villains, love without rescue, and a world where listening is not absent, but refused.
It asks a single, unsettling question:
What survives when legitimacy decides who is allowed to matter?
