Soulkeeper of Tikum

A father's soul. A god's game. A dying daughter. One final ritual.

In a twilight realm where violet skies hum with magic and obsidian towers pierce reality, Tzamaru, the Soulkeeper, walks the line between myth and madness.

At 250 years old, this battle-worn shaman still looks 41—bald, bearded, carved with sacred runes. He’s faced voidspawn, raised cities from ruin, and even stared down forgotten gods. But now, his daughter lies dying, and no spell can save her.

To save her soul, he must make a deal with Kesagake, the god of chaos, who demands he traverse corrupted realms—Greed, Despair, Pride, and more—and retrieve the Five Eyes of Fractured Light. Each realm tests not only his strength, but his heart, his soul, and his legacy.

What begins as a quest becomes a reckoning, as cosmic powers awaken, ancient prophecies burn, and Tzamaru must confront the question: How far would you go to save the one you love? And what happens when even that isn’t enough?
