The Wells of Infinite Dusk

In the twilight realm of Aethelgard, where sun and moon entwine in an eternal dance, time itself flows like a river, swirling in eddies of memory and possibility.  The Veil, a shimmering membrane separating Aethelgard from countless fractured realities, is thinning, and through the tears emerge luminous wells — the Shifting Thresholds — gateways to distorted reflections of Aethelgard itself.
Elara, a boundary warden born of the Veil's energy, is a living mosaic, haunted by fragmented memories of lives she’s never lived. Each new well is a fresh wound, amplifying the voices of her other selves, their shared sorrows and fleeting joys echoing within her.  The encroaching chaos isn’t just an external threat; it’s tearing her apart from within.
Desperate, Elara seeks out Erika King, a historian obsessed with forbidden knowledge of the Architects of Light and the Weavers of Shadow — ancient forces whose conflict birthed the fractured realities. Erika sees in Elara a living embodiment of the myths she’s pieced together, and together they race to decipher cryptic prophecies that foretell a catastrophic merging of worlds.
Their path converges with Christopher Snyder, a grieving hermit and former Weaver, his hands once skilled in manipulating the threads of reality, now burdened by the loss of his family to a shifting threshold.  He holds the key to sealing the wells: a perilous journey into the Nexus, a vortex of iridescent energy at Aethelgard’s heart, where the spectral remnants of the Architects and Weavers still clash.
The journey into the Nexus is a descent into Elara’s fractured soul.  With each step, the echoes of her alternate lives grow stronger, threatening to shatter her into a thousand shards.  At the heart of the Nexus, she faces a cruel bargain: to save her world, she must sever the connection to the very echoes that define her, sacrificing the infinite possibilities of who she might have been.
Torn between the fate of Aethelgard and the agonizing loss of her selves, Elara must make a choice.  A choice that will not only determine the destiny of her world but redefine the very essence of her soul. A choice that will resonate through the fractured realities, shaping the future of all possible worlds within the shimmering depths of the Wells of Infinite Dusk.  Will she embrace unity or the chaotic beauty of her fragmented self?
