Terthys: The Hidden Kingdom Beneath the City

By PixelArt Studio Press

Magic didn't vanish. It was amputated. For a thousand years, humanity lived in half a world. The Veil cut us off from dragons, elves, and the mana that made reality breathe. We called it peace. It was a tourniquet. Until Maya Kowalczyk spoke to a god.

Now the Veil is bleeding. The worlds are merging. And something ancient is waking beneath Warsaw. Maya is a Debt Bearer, trained to keep magic leashed. But when a sleeping leviathan under the city stirs, she chooses connection over control-and shatters reality. Now Warsaw grows crystal roots. Dragons perch on skyscrapers. The Vistula runs with mana. And 1.2 million people paid the price.

Together with a dragon-bound runaway, an exiled elf prince, and a boy who chose to become stone, Maya must build a new world from the wreckage. But the Merge was only the first door.

Because the leviathan wasn't the only one sleeping.
