    Survival in Captivity

    • 1h 7m

    The fragile beginnings of trust emerge

    The Breaking Series continues with Breaking Out, a dark tale of survival under Zudaeshi’s reign. Mulsae, Master of the Water Sanctum, has endured nearly fifty years as her confidant and captive, sustained only by his bond with Damion. But when Garrick’s reckless love affair draws the Harmonarch’s attention, an innocent human woman is swept into the court’s cruelty.

    In the first five chapters, masks crack, loyalties tangle, and the fragile beginnings of trust emerge between Mulsae, Damion, and Hanna. These opening episodes reveal a world where survival demands deception, where compassion becomes rebellion, and where even the smallest choices carry unbearable cost.
