In a world that worships the sky, mass is a mortal sin. For nineteen years, Kai Arden was mocked as the "Gravity-Well Cripple" of the floating Seven Clouds Sect. While elite geniuses cultivated weightlessness to dance among the stars, Kai’s "broken core" did the opposite-absorbing energy inward, packing his marrow with unyielding density, and tethering him to the mud. Deemed useless ballast ahead of a grand ascension ritual, the Sect Elders ruthlessly throw him off the edge of the floating mountain, laughing as he plummets toward certain death. But they didn't purify the sky. They just dropped an anvil. Awakening at terminal velocity, Kai’s core collapses into a primordial cosmic anchor of infinite density. He doesn't need to fly. Armed with a cynical mind and a ravenous hunger for raw metal, he learns to force the heavens to fall toward him. From shattering three-ton vault doors to crushing elite wind-walkers with a single glance, Kai begins a brutal descent into the realm of sovereignty. The arrogant rulers of the sky think they sit out of reach...but the ground has finally come to claim its debt.
