Chapter 1: The Door That Shouldn’t Be

Seventeen-year-old Isaac Delaney’s life is anything but extraordinary. Struggling to stay under the radar in his small town, he spends his days in monotony—until the door appears. For years, Isaac has dreamt of the same black door with no handle, standing alone in an endless misty field. When it materializes in his bedroom one evening, he realizes it’s not just a dream but the key to a mysterious world on the other side.

Crossing through the Veil, Isaac finds himself in a breathtaking but dangerous realm where the trees hum with energy, the skies shimmer with ribbons of light, and every shadow seems to watch him. There, he encounters a hooded figure who warns him that his arrival has opened a fragile barrier between worlds, awakening forces that should never have been disturbed.

Now, hunted by creatures from beyond the Veil and burdened with questions about his connection to this other world, Isaac must unravel the secrets of the mysterious door—and his own past—before the shadows claim both worlds.
