They called him Nine. Once, he was destined to rule the stars.

Born to the immortal Soulborn clans, Nine awakened as a true god—heir to Atlantis, protector of the universe.
    But, on his coronation day, mortals rebelled. They slaughtered the gods, tortured the survivors, and locked Nine inside a nightmare of his own creation: the night his village burned, replaying endlessly for ten thousand years.

 
Every loop, he watches his father die. Every loop, he fails to save them. Every loop, he dies in the flames—only to wake and suffer it again.


Until someone summons him.
Ripped from his prison and thrust into the body of Little Finger—a street thief and his own mortal soul fragment—Nine awakens in chains, powerless in a frozen land built on the graves of gods. The mortals who destroyed his kind now rule, and they have no idea what they've unleashed.

 Born to protect the universe, Nine must choose: fulfill his divine purpose... or burn it all down.

***************************************

"The next time I rise... it won't be to save them. It'll be to end them."
