Darkness: Dawn Of Gods
On a day that would change everything, Yamikuro Asaki, a rebellious high schooler who defies authority and fights back against government enforcers known as Hunters, crosses paths with Isabella, a girl who changes his life.
Alongside his childhood friend Elara, Yamikuro's encounter with Isabella leads him to face a god, one of many who have begun chasing down Yamikuro. The god seeks a power Yamikuro never knew he possessed: The Darkness, a force capable of planetary destruction and known to corrupt its users.
Left with no choice, Yamikuro kills the god, but the guilt haunts him.
Soon after, he's taken to The Hideout, a safe place for Resonants, humans born with powers, separated from the powerless, known as Graceless. There, he meets others who will shape his path: Kaminari, Cedar, Rye, and Deia. Each of them carries their own burdens and secrets.
Together, they challenge the world's broken systems, changing how the world functions and how humans and gods see each other. But revolution is never simple. As Yamikuro fights to protect those he cares about, he's forced to confront questions he doesn't know the answers to.
Why did his parents really die? What exactly is the Darkness? Why are the gods afraid of him? How did the world get to this point?
And is peace even possible in a world built on fear and control?
He's not the only one looking for answers. The future depends on who finds them first.
