Humanity's hour of reckoning draws near.
Armed with Hexis's forbidden knowledge, forged by Tenisent's brutal trials, and driven by his own revolutionary engineering, Keith Winterscar stands ready to challenge the world itself.
Likely among the strongest humans now walking the Earth, Keith's true mission is clear: liberate To'Wrathh from Relinquished's stranglehold. Their plan is audacious. Their target is legend.
Twelve miles beneath the earth lies the Division Stone. A relic of unimaginable power, crafted to shatter the unity fractal and free any machine from bondage. When the machines' first rebellion crumbled, the great goddess Tsuya buried this weapon in shadow. When the protofeathers emerged, she raised it from its tomb, believing this to be the critical moment where the violet goddess would finally meet her end. But when their second uprising failed, A56 seized the Stone and seemingly destroyed it forever.
Until now. The mites have spoken. The coordinates of the missing Division Stone have been revealed.
The mite Prophecy will either fulfill its ancient promise, or Relinquished will reign eternal.
But the world is filled with secrets, and there is more to discover. Entombed in crushing darkness, an ancient spaceship from humanity's golden age lies forgotten, surrounded by a civilization keeping it safeguarded from the machines. Within its hull lies mankind's ultimate weapon. A discovery that could change the trajectory of everything.
History is moving. A human warrior unlike any other walks the earth once more, following the first machine apostate in centuries. The time is now.
The third and final attempt to complete the prophecy has begun.
Book six of a progression fantasy epic set around a pseudo-medieval society clinging to existence on frozen post-apocalyptic Earth. Impossible odds, weak-to-strong progression, dungeon-delving, epic battles, scavenged tech, prophecy, magic, and mystery--12 Miles Below has something for everyone.
