What happens when the story you loved betrays you?
Four ordinary people thrown in the world of their fantasy novel, "Aelric the Last Flame" (The Chosen Light). They know the plot, the characters, the tragic ending where the noble hero Aelric fails against the unstoppable Pale Lord. But the details feel wrong, the edges of the story beginning to fray...
Meet the characters: Kaito, the shadow strategist manipulating politics. Elias, the modern soldier forging a path with steel and tactics. Mina, the empathetic healer torn between ideals and reality. Reika, the chaotic mage breaking rules and reality alike. And Aelric, the 'hero' himself, bound to a mysterious System and a past far darker than the legends claim.
Now, armed with fragmented knowledge, these unlikely characters must survive and adapt. Initially unaware of each other, they walk separate paths, yet every choice sends ripples across the unraveling plot, impacting the world and, eventually, each other. Can they outwit a broken narrative? Can they succeed where the chosen hero seems destined to fail? Or will they become just another tragic footnote?
Strategy, strength, heart, and chaos collide as they fight for survival, challenge destiny, and desperately try to rewrite the ending.
