Dayas's Nineteen Wishes

About this book

In worlds ruled by magic where destinies tangle between ancient academies and forgotten cities, stands Dayas; the young man owning everything and feeling nothing. With features hiding a deep emotional void, and remnants of feelings stolen from him in a mysterious childhood, Dayas walks a strange journey to recover his lost humanity. This is no mere tale about magic, but an existential journey beginning from "the Beautiful Horizon Academy's" corridors, where expulsion and adventure are but the beginning. Accompanied by his brother Scorpi with the scorpion's tail, and the loyal friend Semi, Dayas finds himself before a unique cosmic pact: "to wish you must feel, and to recover that feeling you must wish." Nineteen wishes drawn as stars and scars on his chest, each a key to a lost feeling, and a price for a tale not yet told. From the struggle against the "routine" killer in gloomy cities, to "the three sips challenge" in a mythical cafe, reaching cosmic courts' corridors; events escalate to blend worlds.
