Obliviscent

Magic is order. Magic is law. At least, that’s what Airi Valeria Nachtal—twelve-year-old princess of the Elven Dominion and heir to the arcane legacy of Manifold Arcana—was raised to believe. But belief cracks under pressure. In a realm teetering on the edge of collapse, Airi descends into the most dangerous place on the continent: a sealed Dungeon spoken of only in legends. Her kingdom is being devoured by a mysterious, incurable illness. Her mother—the Queen—lies bedridden, fading. With no answers left in the world of men, Airi turns to the forbidden. She enters alone. But she doesn’t stay that way. Trapped beside two ten-year-old boys who shouldn’t exist—Stalin Arkhangelsky, whose very presence defies reality, and Shiro, a smirking enigma with no detectable mana—Airi is pulled deeper into a place that mocks the laws of magic, time, and reason itself. Corridors loop. Illusions bite. Shadows crawl in defiance of light. Echoes speak before thoughts are formed. And with each step forward, the Dungeon doesn’t just twist the world around her—it begins to twist her. Duty compels her to endure. But something else stirs—something darker. Because the monsters here aren’t all made of teeth and rage. Some wear smiles. Some whisper truths. And some reflect parts of herself she never meant to see. Stalin’s revelations threaten to unravel everything she thought she knew. And something unseen—something ancient—is watching. As the walls of reason begin to collapse, Airi must confront the unthinkable: The magic she was born to wield may be the greatest lie of all.
