Former guardian works night shifts while hiding a hammer.
Clark Wayne once shielded Blue Star as its Thunder God, but guilt over his adoptive parents' deaths drove him to tear out his Lightning Star Core and vanish. For three years he endured mockery as Clark Luther, a convenience store nobody. Meeting Liz Aurel cracks his self-imposed exile. Her danger drags him into a brutal feud among four ruling houses, where he learns the Blackwoods have pacted with an extraterrestrial Annihilator and his parents' fate hides a lie. His old comrade Raymond works inside the enemy ranks, revealing the Spark Tower Tournament as a ritual to tear open a spacetime gate. Forced marriage, public humiliation, and betrayal push Clark to reclaim his Thunder Hammer, shatter his old limits, and obliterate the invasion before it consumes his world.
