Kayne Grey never sought to stand out. Living in the shadow of an ideal brother, overlooked by his parents, and ignored by everyone else — he felt like just another face in the crowd.

That was until the night the sky turned blue. When the asteroid struck, everything shifted for humanity. Some people crumbled, others found strength, and a few were warped by newfound power into beings they could barely recognize. They became known as Metas.

Kayne should have died that night. Instead, something far beyond human will chose him.

Now he walks a fragile line. A Meta who hides in plain sight. A vigilante who saves people from Metas… and Metas from the Guards meant to hunt them down. Each fight costs him pieces of himself, yet he can’t stop. Because for the first time, the forgotten boy matters.

Yet, in the quiet spaces beyond the stars, a bigger plan stirs. The asteroid was just the starting point. Humanity's downfall might not be merely an accident, and Kayne's survival could be part of something much larger.
