The Shattered Seal

Fexierr
The world changed the day the Gates appeared. Portals tore open across the sky, unleashing monsters into human cities. Civilization survived—but only because a new kind of human emerged. Hunters. People who gained power from the Gates themselves. Governments built organizations to control them. Guilds rose to claim fame and fortune. Powerful hunters became celebrities, heroes, and weapons of the new world. But not every hunter fights for humanity. Some hunt for themselves. ⸻ Beneath the streets of London, Gates sometimes open where no one is watching. And when they do… someone is already there. Monsters are found dead. Gates collapse before Authority teams arrive. No witnesses remain. The underground has started whispering a name. The Gate Ghost. No one knows who he is. No one knows where he came from. But one thing is certain. He isn’t hunting monsters to save the world. He’s hunting them for power. And the deeper he goes into the Gates, the more he begins to realize something terrifying. The Gates were never random. Someone—or something—is controlling them. And the truth behind them may be connected to the night Arin Vale lost everything. ⸻ Power decides everything in the new world. And Arin intends to take as much of it as possible. ⸻ “People call it survival. I call it power.” — Arin Vale
