The Story
VEILBREAK
A WORLD BETWEEN WORLDS
Not every mystery is meant to have an answer.
The Veil has always existed, hidden just beyond human perception. It lingers at the edge of dreams, whispered about in forgotten myths and glimpsed only by those touched by its presence. For centuries, its true nature has remained one of humanity's greatest mysteries.
As ancient mysteries collide with reckless scientific ambition, Freya Holm is drawn into a journey that will challenge everything she believes about herself, the world around her, and the unseen realm waiting beyond it.

Found Family & Unlikely Allies
No one in Veilbreak is exactly what they seem, and none of them were supposed to end up together. From fugitives and hackers to survivors and people with nowhere else to turn, the story brings together a group of very different people who are forced to rely on one another. Expect unlikely friendships, clashing personalities, buried secrets, loyalty that has to be earned, and the slow transformation of strangers into something that feels a lot like family.

The bear was missing an eye again. It was the third time that month the thing had somehow managed to lose it. With a weary sigh, Freya plucked a wooden button from the clutter of the workbench. She threaded her needle without looking, her hands as steady as they had always been, and began stitching it back into place.
A curtain of pale blonde hair slipped free from the hood she spent most of her life hiding behind. She brushed it away with the back of her wrist.
Ten years of this work had left their marks on her. Scarred knuckles. Nails cut short and squared off. A thin white line down her left thumb where a chisel had slipped when she was nineteen. Everything above the wrists stayed covered. Sleeves pulled past her palms. Loose gray wool nobody had ever looked twice at.
She nudged the lamp closer to her patient and focused on the final knot. "There," Freya murmured, snipping the thread. "Good as new."
The plush bear lifted a paw to inspect its repaired eye. Seemingly content with the fix, it touched the fresh stitches along its face before dipping its head in a tiny bow.
Freya huffed and gave one ear a gentle flick. "You're welcome. Just try not to lose this one, okay?"
