The Eyes (novel series)
This contact with a parallel universe generated too much energy for the Earth to absorb safely, leading to a major activation of all tectonic faults, with geological, oceanic and atmospheric disasters hitting the globe and the extra background radiation causing widespread mutations in humans as well as other living beings.
Over centuries, they settled in a belt of marginally fertile lands in an island-continent not far from the location of the failed experimental energy bridge, while the rest of the explored world is barren and uninhabitable.
The golem flee the battlefield in frustration, while the Divine Mutant and his retinue of mumens and possessed humans moves north to Zagrin, the capital of Khassam's empire in the fertile lands.
The two manage to survive the chaos of the Dream - triggered in the city by the bandit king Nikosner who first met with the hybernating mumen - and Liam discovers that, by playing his ancient technological musical sirena, he has the power to influence the minds of other people.
While Nikosner killed himself out of his madness Liam, Tshcea and many Ussian's survivors reach the Delta of Miir region, where the imminent fulfillment of an ancient prophecy related to the legendary Zuni Bird has gathered thousands of people fleeing from the burning nearby lands.
With the help of the Cyclones (kind of a priestly order of the cult of the Zuni Bird) Liam manages to reach the top of an ancient pyramid buried in the swamps of the delta and plays his songs at the proper astral conjunction time.
Liam disappears at the climax of the mystical event, never to be seen again, while all the witnesses, now named the Children of the Song (among them Tshea an Algon - the former leader of the Cyclones), spread in the world to oppose the madness of the Dream.
Fighting to keep his self together, Tah Ti discovers the true origin of the Divine Mutant as the reincarnation of Adam Cadman, the tyrannical human leader of the Council of 30 (the current mumen) who, two thousand year before, triggered the cataclysm by tapping too much energy from the reality inhabited by the Unmen.
Tah Te briefly managed to send a confirmation he received the meassage to Ourania, the leader of the pyramid-builders, just instants before she and her followers were killed in the climax of the cataclysm, which also submerged the pyramid.
At the same time, finally suspecting to be a puppet under control of some entity he cannot perceive, the Divine Mutant leaves Zagrin and moves to the land of Lamassa, to investigate the only region he cannot see in his Dream, dispatching ten of his mumen to the Shanzee complex to retrieve his matrix.
The Children of the Song shatters the matrix in order to prevent further reincarnation of Adam, and the infant body of the Mutant, now devoid of any eldritch power or external influence, is adopted by Tah Ti and Sinope.
