She buried him a decade ago. Now he walks the earth again—and so begins the unraveling of empires.
Queen Ioelena of Hildeheim has ruled through fire and blood, her grief forged into power. But when Connerh—the warrior she once loved and lost—returns from the dead, everything she's built begins to crack. His presence awakens forbidden magic, unearths secrets that were meant to stay buried, and threatens to reignite a war the world cannot survive.
As ancient gods stir and judgment looms, spies whisper through palace halls, giants gather at the edges of ruined cities, and the elves—keepers of justice—begin to move.
Across a fractured land, kings, queens, rebels, and monsters collide—each facing the cost of what they’ve lost… and what they might become.
In this sweeping dark fantasy where vengeance wears a crown and love walks with death, the question isn’t who will survive…
It’s what will remain of them when the gods are done.
