Summary
“You and me, we been at the bottom so long, Az. We're overdue. It’s our turn now.”
Azriel smiled sadly. “Yeah. We’ll make ’em remember.”It’s 1968, and London is electric: loud, hungry, and ready to devour anyone who dares to dream. Illyria is a new name on the streets—three boys from nowhere with a broken-down van, a half-written setlist, and one shot at becoming something more. For them, the band isn’t just about music. It’s survival. It’s family. It’s the only thread keeping Azriel from vanishing entirely.
Behind the scenes is Mor, trying to turn nothing into legend. In the crowd is Eris Vanserra, corporate heir with a polished smile, enemy on paper, and maybe the only person who sees Azriel for what he really is. He shouldn't be here. And Azriel shouldn't want him. As Illyria claws its way toward fame, the cracks widen: broken homes, buried trauma, media scandals, and a music industry built to consume.
This is a story about ambition and legacy, desire and hate.
About what we owe our art, and what it takes from us in return.
It’s not just a love story. It’s what happens when you try to change the world, and it changes you first.Series
