Path of Arkana (HP/MCU)

Death, it seemed, had not finished with him yet. Once, he had been ordinary. A fleeting life, brief and forgettable, swallowed by the silence that waits for everyone in the end. Then came magic. A second life shaped by whispered spells, candlelit libraries, and war hidden beneath the surface of the world. It ended in green light and agony, struck down by the curse of a Dark Lord whose name still lingered like poison in memory. He should have remained dead. Instead, he opened his eyes in New York City. Not his New York. A harsher one. A world balanced on the edge of catastrophe, where gods wore the faces of men, where monsters descended from the stars, and where humanity survived only by the fragile illusion that someone stronger would always arrive in time. The Marvel Universe did not care about ordinary people. And despite everything, he was still only a wizard. No wand. No allies. No place in a story already crowded with legends. Only knowledge of what was coming. Alien invasions. Hidden empires. Machines dreaming of extinction. And, somewhere in the distant dark, a titan waiting patiently to erase half the universe with the snap of his fingers. He did not ask for another life. But if fate insisted on giving him one more chance, then perhaps this time he would learn how to survive it. ------------------------------ Hey guys, I'm Aurelius Gularis, your author, and welcome to Path of Arkana (or How to Survive and Maybe Craft Hogwarts in Another World) that you can find on Wattpad or Royal Road very soon.
