The Divine Shadow

In the shattered ruins of the Cathedral of the Enduring Flame, Lys grapples with the fallout from the latest divine conflict. The Whisperer has returned. Nolan is enthralled. Tempestra is still alive, with Lys as their newest avatar… which was definitely not part of the plan.

As the goddess worms deeper into her mind as well as her body, Lys is determined to keep control. If not for herself, then for Nolan, who is at risk of succumbing to his own divine possession. But resisting Tempestra is only the beginning.

Across the Devoted Lands, the devoted and heretics alike are spilling blood in the names of their deities. As she prepares for her final stand against the gods—uncovering long-forgotten secrets and a relic that could be the key to ending the conflict—Lys finds herself at a crossroads. Is she truly as ready for a world without divine rule as she thought?
