Binary Ember

My mother used death to carve a mark of strength on me. Ten years later, a forbidden book that could "eat people" and a shackle that sealed my divine power were smashed in front of me at the same time. They said that I was an "outlier" that should not exist in the plan, and that I was the best "container" for the God-Slayer. And I discovered that those beings who tried to control me—the cold holy messengers, the mysterious mentors, and even the ancient gods imprisoned underground—they imprisoned each other and were chains to each other. When the chains begin to break, no one can survive alone.
