The Discarded Heir Was A Sage

Aiden survives a fall, gains secret power, and confronts his murderous uncle.

Seven years after his uncle throws him from a cliff, Aiden Blackthorn emerges from the Void carrying the Dawn Codex. He still sees himself as a failure, not realizing his new abilities let him shatter knights with a single block and reduce giants to mud. The boy his uncle failed to kill has grown into the one threat he never anticipated.
