The Berserker Way
He’s not trying to be anything. He just never stopped. Kaelen doesn’t speak much. He trains. He listens. He endures. He was six when the world ended. No one came for his block. By the time a rescue team arrived, he had already crawled out—torn up, alone, and changed.
Now he’s nineteen—one of hundreds raised underground to survive what’s still out there.
He doesn’t make friends.
He doesn’t ask questions.
He doesn’t belong on a team—and after a while, no one expects him to.
But he keeps showing up.
Every day. Quiet. Precise. Alone.
And when the others start falling behind,
when instructors stop seeing him as a student and start seeing him as something that doesn’t fit anywhere—he doesn’t flinch.
He’s not there to stand out.
He’s there because nothing else makes sense anymore.
⸻
The Berserker Way is a grounded, psychological dark fantasy about silence, survival, and what happens when you shape yourself into something that doesn’t fit anywhere—but can’t be ignored.
