Thirty years after the First Catastrophe, the world is ruled by Echoes—fragments of forgotten entities that bind to human souls, granting immense power. But not all Echoes are meant to be found. When 17-year-old Lucian Vale stumbles upon an Echo Shard in the ruins of Harrowpoint, he unknowingly awakens something far beyond his control. The Harlequin, an Echo of madness and trickery, carves its power into his soul, setting him on a path of illusions, laughter, and deadly deception. But in a world where power determines survival, a jester’s game is never simple. As ancient horrors awaken and hidden forces stir, Lucian must decide: Is he the puppet or the puppeteer?
