Darkness Calls Softly

by

Cassie McDonald

The Aftermath, a swath of land on the island kingdom of Kloair, was left decimated by a horrific war between the chaotic and order deities. There, demonic beings roam, wreaking havoc and death on innocent people. With the Capitol far-away and the King unconcerned, it is up to self-made demon hunters to take them out.

Tristan Redmond is one of those demon hunters. With his extraordinary leadership qualities and the fighting skills of an ancient warrior - if he does say so himself - he made a demon-fighting team like no other. Tristan knows there is no task he can’t accomplish – but he has a secret desire, one that requires travelling to the Capitol and facing the king.

Eclipse is not of this realm. She’s a Nightborn, a demon who serves the goddess of chaos and despair. Newly alone and with no knowledge of how to return to her home realm, Eclipse must use her silver tongue and demonic powers to find a way to satiate her goddess.

When Tristan and his friends arrive in the small town of Onward, they land within Eclipse’s deadly grasp. Tristan must make a deal – to help Eclipse get home.

With their lives now intertwined, Eclipse and Tristan must work together to survive the Aftermath and the dangers within or neither of them will get what they want.

About the Author

Cassie McDonald

Cassie McDonald is a Canadian author living in the Golden Horseshoe in Ontario. She has lived her entire life buried in the worlds of books, tv shows, movies, and video games. It entranced her so much that she had to create her own (well, many of her own). She enjoys stories of all kinds, especially those that she creates with her friends playing TTRPGs, whether playing in them or leading them herself. When they are not spending time in other worlds, Cassie can be found with their dog, Dot, and wonderful partner, Jake. One day, hopefully soon, they will find their forever home and be able to sit at their writing desk full-time, dreaming up novels and worlds for all to enjoy and explore.
