The Abandonment

Aiden Thorne had lived his entire life within the imposing walls of the Thorne estate, a sprawling mansion that stood as a testament to the family's wealth and power. The Thornes were known throughout the world for their extraordinary supernatural abilities, abilities that had been passed down through generations, shaping them into formidable figures within the realm of magic and technology. It was said that a Thorne was destined for greatness from the moment they were born, their innate powers setting them apart from ordinary humans.

But Aiden was different.

From the day he took his first breath, Aiden's fate was sealed. He was the eldest son of the Thorne family, born into privilege and wealth. The expectations placed upon him were astronomical, and the world watched with bated breath to witness the extraordinary powers that would undoubtedly manifest in him.

Yet, as the years passed, it became painfully evident that Aiden possessed no such powers. He couldn't control the elements, move objects with his mind, or harness the arcane energies that flowed through his family's veins. He was, for all intents and purposes, a disappointment.

Aiden's mother, Lady Isabella Thorne, had held out hope that his powers would manifest later than usual. She had watched her son's every move, searching for even the slightest hint of magic within him. But as the years turned into decades, her hope began to wane, replaced by the bitter reality that her firstborn was powerless.

On a crisp autumn morning, in the heart of the Thorne estate, the decision was made. Aiden's father, Lord Alexander Thorne, a stoic and imposing figure, summoned his son to the grand hall. The room was adorned with priceless artifacts and shimmering chandeliers, a stark contrast to the heavy atmosphere that hung in the air.

"Aiden," Lord Alexander spoke with a cold and final tone, "you have reached the age of twenty-one, and your powers have not awakened. You are no Thorne."

Aiden's heart sank as he heard those words. He had hoped against hope that his family would accept him, regardless of his lack of powers. But now, he stood on the precipice of a decision that would forever alter the course of his life.

Lady Isabella wept silently, her face hidden behind a delicate handkerchief. She had always been more compassionate toward her son, but even her love couldn't sway the iron will of her husband.

"You are hereby disowned and banished from this estate," Lord Alexander continued, his voice unwavering. "You are to leave this place, and your name shall no longer bear the Thorne legacy."

Aiden's world shattered. He was to be cast out, stripped of his family, wealth, and status. He had grown up believing that the Thornes were everything, that their legacy was his destiny. Now, it was all gone, shattered like glass.

Tears welled up in his eyes, but he refused to let them fall. He straightened his back and looked at his father with a newfound resolve. "Very well," Aiden said, his voice steady. "I will leave, and I will forge my own destiny."

With those words, Aiden Thorne turned away from his family, from the grand hall that had once been his sanctuary, and from the life he had known. The heavy oak doors closed behind him, sealing his fate as the disowned heir of the Thorne family.

As he stepped into the world beyond, Aiden carried with him the weight of his name and the determination to prove that even those without powers could rise to greatness. His journey had just begun, and little did he know that it would lead him to the discovery of a hidden world, a world where technology and magic intertwined, and where he would ultimately become the strongest human ever.
