Lord of woes: An infinite evolution of a spirit untamed
Who decided that every main character must be kind-hearted, forgiving, and carved from cheap hope?
Star Crestfold was never meant to be one of them.
Born a prince of the kingdom of Throvarin, Star grew up surrounded by power he could never touch. In a world where Spirit Marks define worth, destiny, and survival, and where every child awakens to the control of a negative force: fear, agony, rage, or delusion.
Everyone awakened.
Except him. He bore no glow. No rank. No blessing.
The systems that governed the world passed over Star as if he were never meant to exist.
At first, people whispered. Then they laughed. Then they named him.
The Hollow Prince.
His father believed in power above all else. As a king, he demanded strength. As a Spirit Warrior, he worshipped it. And as a father… he looked away. What Star lacked became a stain on the bloodline, one that quietly spread to those who stood beside him.
Endurance became Star’s only virtue.
Until even endurance was no longer enough.
Because when Throvarin fell... when calamity tore through the kingdom and old truths were shattered. Something answered Star at last.
Not gently. Not cleanly. And definitely not in any way the world was prepared to accept.
Now marked by something unnamed and unforgiven, Star walks a land where Spirit Warriors rise, Woes are born, and certain existences are better erased than understood. His presence disrupts balance. His emotions do not behave as they should. And when he loses control, even those who sense power cannot explain what they are witnessing.
Hunted by the world that shaped him, Star walks a path with no salvation promised, only survival.
He seeks revenge. He seeks justice. He fights Woes, and tames negative emotions...
But more than anything…
He seeks understanding. Not for the world but for himself.
And the world will soon learn the truth it tried to bury:
Some wounds do not heal.
They evolve.
