They say the world will end in shadow. They never say who will be left to stop it. Luna goes to the mountains carrying nothing but unanswered questions and a past she refuses to remember.

Seseorang memanggilku dengan keras dari belakang. Tanpa berpikir panjang gue langsung menuju arah suara itu berada. Semakin gue melangkah mendekati suara itu, Suara tersebut semakin datang dari arah mana saja. Gue hanya diam menutup telinga. Bertekuk lutut sambil memejamkan mata. Suara itu menghilang dalam sekejap. Ketika mata ini terbuka sedikit. Ada seseorang yang menunjuk ke arah gue. Lalu dia menghilang. Gue merasa bingung apa maksud seseorang itu menunjuk ke arah gue. Gue melihat sekitar gue, tidak ada siapa siapa. Seketika ada tangan yang menyentuh kepala gue dari depan. Lalu ada suara yang membisik ketika tangan itu bersentuhan dengan kepala gue. "Disini letak kesalahanmu". Sesudah itu tangan yang tak dikenal itu seketika hilang dan melebur dengan angin yang berlalu. Gue hanya terdiam. Lalu bertanya, "Ada apa sebenarnya ini?"

In the bustling modern metropolis, there exists a hidden world unknown to most—vampires are not merely the terrifying creatures of legend. They live quietly in the shadows of human society, indistinguishable from ordinary people yet fundamentally different. Our protagonist, Adrian Light, is one such vampire with a unique identity. He was not born from an ancient curse but was transformed due to an accident, forever caught between the worlds of humans and vampires. Adrian possesses eternal life and extraordinary powers, but these are not gifts he desires; they are chains he cannot break. Adrian tries to find his place in modern society. By day, he is an unassuming librarian, and by night, he becomes the city's guardian, using his abilities to help those in trouble. However, concealing his identity is no easy task. He must remain constantly vigilant to avoid revealing his true nature, especially in his interactions with humans. His friendship with his neighbor, Sarah Miller, deepens over time. Sarah's warmth and kindness allow him to glimpse the light of humanity he thought he had lost, but it also plunges him into deeper conflict—he longs to connect with humans, yet fears his identity will put her in danger. At the same time, Adrian faces threats from within the vampire community. Traditional vampire clans see him as an outcast, believing his closeness to humans violates the ancient laws of their kind. They attempt to drag him back into the darkness, even resorting to violence. Adrian is forced to navigate the precarious space between humans and vampires, striving to protect the human friends he cherishes while fending off hostility from his own kind. In this novel, vampires are no longer the traditional symbols of terror but are imbued with complex humanity.

His struggle with identity runs throughout the story, prompting readers to reflect deeply on themes of "self" and "other," "humanity" and "savagery." Through Adrian's perspective, the novel explores universal themes such as loneliness, belonging, and identity in modern society. His story is not just a fantastical adventure about vampires but also a mirror reflecting the confusion and longing within every individual. Adrian's journey is fraught with danger and challenges, but it is also filled with hope and the possibility of redemption. Can he find balance between the worlds of humans and vampires? Can he truly accept himself and discover the meaning of his existence? The answers to these questions will gradually unfold as the story progresses. With its unique perspective, profound emotional depth, and gripping plot, this novel is sure to captivate readers. It is not merely a fantasy about vampires but a profound exploration of humanity, identity, and belonging. Whether you are a fan of fantasy literature or a reader intrigued by themes of human nature, this novel will transport you into a world of contradictions and tensions, inviting you to think and empathize as you read.

It was the seventh century, when the japanese army of the samurai was founded. Back then many soldier fought in a war called „Fuun“. The local warriors were known as spriritual fighters.

They increased their physical strength a bunch and gave them powers, that they´ve never had before. So the war continued for years. All of the samurai were beaten towards the end of the Fuun, except for ten of them, the Meta-Spirit users. They began to fought and even kill each other little by little.

The Meta-Spirits began to wander through Japan independently, and like some kind of virus they have thrown parts of theirselves off. And so they infeceted the human cells, that paranormally mutaded and gave them unique powers. Those paranormal mutations were called „Spirits“.
