Hollow Tongue
Kael did not choose to die.
A flooded underpass. Cold water. A Tuesday night that ended without warning — and then darkness that felt less like death and more like a door.
He wakes up face-down in ash, in a world where the sun has been dead for three hundred years. A world called Valdrek, where the dead do not stay dead, where souls are currency, and where warlords called Soul-Lords harvest the energy of the dying to rule over the rest.
Kael has nothing. No weapon, no power, no knowledge of this world's language. He cannot speak a single word anyone here understands.
But Valdrek's instruments crack when they try to read his soul. Its soldiers look at him like they have seen something that should not exist. And the dead — the carefully preserved, ceremonially silent dead — begin to move when he is near them.
His soul is whole. Unbroken. In a world built entirely on fractures, that makes him the most dangerous thing anyone has ever encountered.
He just does not know it yet.
Neither do they — but they are beginning to suspect.
