She Who Brought Death - 9798988424635

"The only thing I cannot create is death itself. Only you, dear sister, can do that."

Empress Nevia's reign over her late husband's empire has been plagued with death. Grotesque abominations existing only in legend-so-called "Night Creatures"-have been descending upon Danaeca and razing everything in their path, the forever burning core shards seemingly their goal. Yet the people, including King Qirin, are unwilling to discontinue pulling from the life-altering energy source, regardless of the blood it costs them.

Frantic, Nevia seeks to ease the suffering surrounding her, yet gives pause when she discovers a startling truth about herself, suggesting that she may very well play a contributing role in the destruction. After her darkness stirs and she hurts someone dear, her trusted allies shrink away, including the man whom she thought she loved.

Only Saava's golden promise of restoration spurs Nevia forward to Gaia's Core where the goddess has slept for a millennium, yet Nevia is unprepared for the very grim reality that she is about to unveil.

Their very existence has been a lie.
