Blood of the Desecrated

The gods are a lie. What mortals worship as divine creators are actually cosmic reapers—an advanced civilization harvesting humanity's spiritual energy through elaborate systems of faith and holy light. Every prayer is a transaction, every cultivation breakthrough a deposit into their celestial bank. The stronger you become, the richer they grow. But one man has tasted the forbidden truth in his very blood, and he will turn their sacred harvest into a weapon of rebellion.
