Irisaru: Between the Gardens and the Abyss
For an ancient war with no memory of why it began, one boy was never supposed to exist.
For a thousand years, the Gardens Above and the Abyss Below have warred without end - two realms locked in a conflict so old that neither side remembers what started it. Then, on one stolen night of peace between two enemy generals, something impossible happened.
Irisaru was born.
Hidden since infancy in a quiet river town, raised by a mother who isn't his own but loves him as if he were, Irisaru has spent his whole life hiding two black wings and a strength he doesn't dare test. But secrets this old don't stay buried forever - and when the truth of what he is finally catches up to him, it doesn't come quietly. It comes with fire, and an army, and an enemy who has been waiting centuries for someone exactly like him.
With three childhood friends who refuse to let him face it alone, Irisaru sets out on a journey across a world he barely understands, hunting for six ancient temples that hold the only power strong enough to keep him - and everyone he loves - alive.
But every step forward pulls him further from the boy he used to be, and closer to a war neither the Gardens above nor the Abyss below ever meant for him to survive.
Some legacies choose you. This one might cost everything.
