The Raven Thief

Born of the wastelands, Spheris Arnadel, a young skilled thief, finds himself subject to a twist of fate when he steals a powerful relic and becomes a Bearer — humans gifted with powers from the Gods. As a punishment for his theft, he is cast into an otherworldly realm alongside other Bearers, where he faces off against monstrous beasts and powerful enemies. Yet, in his determination to return to the Continent and save his dying mother, Spheris is hell-bent on surviving the abyssal world. Even if it means giving his body to the Dark God whose powers he had stolen... even if it means losing all of his humanity.

The structure of Spheris's mind was designed by him, however he could not ascertain the day he had mapped out this design. Still, its existence was undeniable.

Spheris envisioned his mind as a grand, shadowy library and it manifested as such. Inside this library of shadows, thoughts and memories were stored in segments called Shelves.

They were designed as the literal name. Each Shelf was illuminated by a faint, ethereal light, casting long, mysterious shadows in the spacious library.

Each Shelf served a purpose, holding a different aspect of his intelligence and his strategizing.

The Strategy Shelf was dedicated to planning and formulating strategies. The Tactics Shelf focused more on immediate thinking and rapid decisions in a tense situation. The Emotions Shelf dealt with more personal, softer issues.
