The First Full-Length Novel of the Alchemical Arcana

Planned Summer 2026

The city of Aeroglenn never truly sleeps. A sprawling metropolis where ancient alchemy and cutting-edge cybernetics have fused into something unnatural, something powerful, and something dangerous. The corporations that rule from their towering citadels promise prosperity, immortality, and control over the very fabric of existence. But beneath the neon glow and shimmering illusions, the city’s underbelly is rotting. Experimentation, oppression, and alchemical warfare have turned the lower districts into battlegrounds. And the people have had enough.

As the city teeters on the edge of war, hidden truths begin to surface about the true origins of alchemy, a power so volatile that it could reshape reality itself. In a world where alchemy can create gods or destroy nations, each must ask themselves:

Are they fighting for justice, for vengeance… or for something far more dangerous?

As past and future collide, and rebellion turns to full-scale warfare, Barrett and Agatha must navigate shifting allegiances, buried betrayals, and a force that threatens to transcend the laws of both magic and science.

Because in Aethelus, everything is for sale: even your soul.
