A Kingdom of Men is pushing the Elven clans of the Sunderlands toward extinction. Keres, the mortal counterpart to the God of Death, holds the power to halt the bloodshed. Amidst a brutal civil war threatening her homeland, she struggles to control her gift and avoid succumbing to a curse of insatiable bloodlust. When her people are attacked, she unleashes the beast within. The quest for revenge offers no redemption. As she delves deeper into the darkness and uncovers her heritage, Keres faces a critical challenge: finding her place in a world that could break her. Many seek to wield her as a divine weapon, including a Knight intent on claiming her body and spirit. As the conflict between Man and Elf stains the Sunderlands with innocent blood, Keres must choose: save her people and damn her soul, or forsake the Gods and her homeland for freedom.
