THE ORRYVEX SAGA · SIX-BOOK VISION

Beauty is only
the beginning.

In Vaeloryn, what you see is not always what is there.

BOOK ONE · WORKING TITLE

The Children
of the Unmade.

In Briarhollow, a boy named Kaevryn Oth sees small impossibilities that nobody else notices. A familiar street feels subtly wrong. A fish passes through stone. And beneath the graceful surface of his world, another possibility waits.

As questions begin to accumulate, Kaevryn must learn which mysteries should be followed—and what it means to remain kind when reality itself seems uncertain.

This series is being developed across six planned books. Book One currently includes two completed chapters. Names, geography and illustrated details remain subject to author review.

And sometimes,
the sky looks back.

Some images should be experienced as questions. This artwork explores the unease at the edge of the familiar. Its specific visual details are not yet approved story canon.
