In a world where demons rule, you either protect the wall or you survive inside it. Warrior-born are the nation’s only defense against the demon hordes. With ethereal weapons summoned from ancient runes on their skin and added strength, they give their lives to serve the nation—and their numbers are running out. Sixteen-year-old Rain Oren is a warrior-born, with secret abilities the other warriors don’t have. He is the last surviving member of a once-heroic family, now branded traitors. He struggles to hide his growing powers, too similar to the demons’ to be ignored. Ostracized and bullied his whole life, Rain lives for the day he can graduate from the academy and take up a quiet post guarding the wall in his hometown. To his surprise, he’s assigned a coveted spot on the Elite Squad, a close-knit secret ops team of the best warriors stationed in Centrum, the nation’s capital. ***IMPORTANT SERIES UPDATE*** Great news: Out of the Mist: The Outcast Warrior Chronicles, Book 1 is available now, with Into Darkness: The Outcast Warrior Chronicles, Book 2 on the way.

Verly33: Teen me, who stumbled their way through adolescent social world-building, totally wishes I’d had this handy interaction guidebook back then!
