Danny Runner and the Phantom Crown

Summary:

Danny Runner is a fourteen-year-old boy with a normal family: mom, dad, a nerdy older sister... and a secret.
Because, face it, what kind of fourteen-year-old are you if you don't have a secret? Danny's, however, is terrible and scary: something happened to him, an accident, yes... an accident that is transforming him into something else, something inhuman.
Danny is scared. And alone. And he knows he can't ask his parents for help.
Until he meets someone who seems to have contracted the same strange condition: it is Vladislav Korolkrovi, a mysterious figure from his parents' past. Danny asks him for help... but it seems that this is the biggest mistake of his life.

And this is where the hunt begins.

Get ready to run, exploring a new world, among creatures never seen before and others that, familiar as a recurring dream, will tell you the mythological story... of ghosts!

Chapter Text

-0, before the start -

 


How many times have I thought it was a big joke?
We were swimming in gold, yet trapped in a madhouse;
Bread of angels that leavens the pandemonium,
When they took a piece of me.

Lost, I feel lost;
I live in a constant doubt about a Xenoverse.
However, I can't tell where it is.
Neither how it is, nor what it is, nor what I think about
What the Xenoverse is

- Xenoverso, Rancore (translated from Italian)
