Publisher's Synopsis
A Handbook to the History of the Orb Kraterre and Its Sun and Stars is a mytho-historical chronicle that blends visionary fantasy with lyrical world-building, presented as both sacred text and recovered memory. Authored by Jonathan Olvera, this "handbook" serves as an interdimensional relic-part prophecy, part legend, and part metaphysical map of a world shaped by crystal resonance, celestial forces, and ancient truths.
Beginning with The Orb Awakened, readers are drawn into a cosmos where memory itself is alive, echoing through time via sentient crystals formed during the universe's primal rhythms. The tale unfolds through epochs: from the luminous Age of Tides and Light, to the fateful arrival of star-born Messengers, and the rise of The Guilds of Resonance, who channel the harmonies of the Orb for knowledge, power, and healing.
As light fades and shadow encroaches, the narrative plunges deeper-into The Veins of Shadow, the lost mysteries of the Shardfall Expedition, and the subterranean secrets sealed in The Vault of Remainder. Through these accounts, the myth of the Child of Orrithune emerges-an enigmatic figure said to herald either renewal or ruin.
Told in fragments of recovered prophecy, poetic remembrance, and crystal-borne transmissions, the final chapters-Through the Scorchveil and The Memory of Light-offer a resolution both cosmic and intimate: a restoration of harmony, if not certainty.
At once a spiritual codex, an epic chronicle, and a cosmic riddle, this book invites seekers, dreamers, and stargazers to remember what was lost-and to listen, deeply, to what still sings beneath the silence.
