== About the Series ==
Welcome to the official wiki for the series!
'''A Place Beyond The Light''' is a gritty, high-fantasy and isekai series taking place on the war-torn continent of Rodinia.


The story follows '''[[Asep]]''', a cynical, chain-smoking former street thug from Bandung, Indonesia, who unexpectedly transmigrates into the fantasy world of Rodinia. Lacking the innate magical "Lumite" found in the blood of all native inhabitants, Asep is forced to rely on his wits, brutal martial arts (''Tenaga Dalam''), and modern-world knowledge to survive.  
The overarching plot explores the struggles of ordinary people, mercenaries, and fallen nobles caught in a devastating power struggle between the Kingdom of Ardenia, the Albion Empire, the Holy Empire of Rodinia, and the Undying Empire.


He soon joins the '''[[Castalia Mercenary Company]]''', a pragmatic military force led by '''[[Zachary Valente]]''' fighting to stabilize the fractured '''Kingdom of Ardenia'''. As a full-scale continental war erupts involving the fanatical '''[[Eclipse Cult]]''' and the invading '''[[Albion Empire]]''', Asep teams up with the exiled alchemical genius '''[[Treste Comte Mordeau]]''' to drag the medieval world kicking and screaming into an industrial revolution—building everything from combat buggies to guided anti-air missiles to keep his new comrades alive.
