In a universe which exists at an atemporal time, filled with infinite realms and dimensions. With an astral abyss comes the struggle for supremacy.    Races conquer the weaker species, lording over them like demigods, the quest for more resources turned the astral seas into a burial ground full with tales of wars.    In a universe filled with colossal beasts, monsters and mysteries, lies the foundation of the age in which Project Kied is based.    With the more powerful empires always thirsting and battling for more territories, they merge into leagues, orders and confederacies, to mutually channel their resources towards achieving their goals.    But a realm within the midst of this chaos suddenly disappeared as though it had never existed, its tides faded, taking along with it a race called the Nordens.    This set of lifeforms have had one basic characteristic with which they identified themselves, which is their State - Peace and Matter - Light.     Milleniums after, when their existence to the other realms had now become a myth, a child was born with a State and Matter that went against the status quo. By name Project Kied, he was confirmed to be of the State - War and Matter - Dark and Night.    Temporarily sent on exile after destroying his pillars of light, Kied finds his higher form - Equivax - while sailing the astral seas and he is trained by Equivax into becoming a cosmic pirate, who are the only form of resistance capable of challenging the feudal orders.    But Kied is fated to be more than a cosmic pirate, just as Norx Hade Zex had said, "... THE DARK CHILD OF WAR".     Will he be brave enough to pursue his destiny regardless of the trails and challenges ? Can he fearlessly grin at the death of day ? For in the beginning it was night.

Leo was typical, overlooked and completely unprepared when a forbidden tome chose him and gave him the mark of a Warden and placed him under the Mage Academy. This school is an intermediary between worlds, a training ground where recipients of a gift of a System Interface, called a Codex, are trained. However, the file of Leo himself is empty, his Codex whispers that they are “unfinished,” and the elite at the Academy are watching him with suspicion and fear. Dropped into a realm of magical rank and fatal challenges, Leo is an exception. His magic is not dead, but a forbidden energy, which develops by consuming the magic and memories of others. In a maimed mentor who has an overabundance of knowledge, a genius competitor with a cursed lineage, and an ally with a talent to outwit the street, Leo discovers a rot inside the Academy.

He is a “Fractured Soul,” a descendant in an intergenerational cycle, who will either redeem the world or ruin it.
