Synopsis

SOMBRE EPIC HIGH FANTASY WITH A MYTHOLOGICAL FOUNDATION

Told in an elevated, literary, and timeless voice

The multiverse of Yî is suffused with ancient powers and mythic beings.
In a world shaped by magic, intrigue, and impending ruin, the warrior Thion is drawn into an odyssey that drives him to the very limits of mind and life.

More than once he looks death in the eye —
yet courage and duty carry him onward. Step by step.

When a fragment of divine light binds itself to him, Thion is forced to confront a decision
whose outcome will shape not only his own fate, but that of entire worlds.

The Rise of Thion is a sombre, mythic heroic epic —
rich in magic, eternal gods, and manifold peoples and creatures.

Consciously medieval and archaising in tone, the novel spans its arc
from mythic origins through divine election and ordeal
to war, downfall, and a very different kind of ascension:

a journey through inner, parallel, and infernal realms.

THE MYTHOS — YÎ

Sagas and Myths

At the dawn of all time there was Yî —
a vast multiverse born from the united light of the Udar, divine beings.

Yet across the ages, discord grew.

Oth, the god of chaos, turned against his siblings.
His shadow fell most heavily upon Ithrum, the world of his sister Alomne,
whose peoples were forced to bear the deepest wounds.

THE EPIC — THION

In the Golden Age, the warrior Thion and his men are entrusted with a secret mission —
a charge that will decide the fate of humans, dwarves,
and countless other beings.

But the ways of the gods are treacherous.

Thus Thion does not become the seeker —
but the one who is found:

by a fragment of divine light — a Lumen.

Hunted by the creatures of Oth and tested by ancient powers,
Thion stands at a crossroads:

Will he become an instrument of the Lumen?
Or will he find a way to free Ithrum from its sombre destiny?

FANTASY

A katabatic journey through sombre spheres —
shaped by myth, symbol, and fate.

A novel far removed from the fantasy mainstream,
told in the voice and bearing of ancient sagas.

Mythic. Literary. Epic. Sombre.
