Part of Crowns of Nyaxia
First published 2025
Mische's sacrifice saved everyone she cared about, but it came at a terrible cost. The world now exists in perpetual darkness. The gods have imprisoned her, while Asar burns with thoughts of revenge and searches desperately for the woman he loves. A goddess presents them with one last chance at redemption and reunion. She offers them a path that could bring them back together, but the price is steep. Asar and Mische must steal the power of the death god himself. Only then can Asar attempt something no mortal has ever achieved: true godhood. Their quest will drag them through both mortal lands and divine realms. Old allies will stand beside them, but ancient enemies will hunt them. The underworld crumbles around them as the gods sharpen their weapons for war. Asar and Mische face an impossible choice about what they will give up to gain the strength to conquer death itself.
