Description
***Returning Soon!*** ***Previous chapters have been relabeled "Original" as they are from the previous edition. For the newer edition of the story, please read chapters labeled "Revised" as they are published. Thank you!*** The earth crumbles, nations battle for supremacy, and a creature of fire and smoke is on the hunt. From the safety of his home, Faren comes face-to-face with an ancient evil. To resolve an ages-long conflict, he must leave his peaceful village and confront a harsh, broken reality. On the day of her Trial, Mae receives a vision from the gods. To prove herself and save her clan, she must endure their trials and claim their power for herself. In a collapsing old infirmary, Telsing's life is fading away. But the world isn't finished with Telsing, and whispers from a past life promise to reunite her with the people most precious to her. For a price. Deep in shadowed caverns, a captive soul bides their time, awaiting an opportunity to bring an end to the gods and reclaim all that they've lost. Bound together by unseen forces, these four souls will rage against the coming storm. Will they free the earth or destroy themselves and everything that remains? ***All rights reserved.
