The Scar-Cipher of Nenthys

di Chekmam Ahcene (Autore)

Chekmam Ahcene, 2025

In the deep, vertical city of Nenthys, the Blight is a constant threat, its agonizing energy contained only by the sacred art of the Scar-Scribes. Cassian is a master of this craft, building Sutures—black, geometric tattoos—that wall away pain and preserve life. He believes his work is a merciful necessity, a barrier against the tide. But when he is summoned to the Celestial Palace to treat the Crown Prince, he discovers a nightmare. The boy is not just infected; he is a conduit for something ancient and vast buried deep below the city—a Sleeper whose dreams are violent realities. The Queen's solution is the Final Suture, a ritual that would silence the Sleeper by sacrificing every marked soul in Nenthys. Branded a heretic and hunted by the Queen's shadows, Cassian flees into the city's cursed depths. Allied with a reckless Free-Marked thief and a disillusioned Inquisitor, he must unravel a millennia-old conspiracy. He will learn that the Blight is not a disease to be cured, but a dialogue to be balanced, and that the foundations of his world are built on a lie. To prevent a silent apocalypse, Cassian must do the impossible: not just suture a wound, but heal the world itself.
