The realms are unbalanced. The gods have vanished. And the only hope of restoring order lies with a girl who was never meant to survive.

For three years, Sinisa Strigidae was bound to the underrealm, a Reaper enslaved to death itself. She fought for her freedom. She became something more. A Guardian—an ancient force lost to time, wielding a power few remember and fewer understand.

But even that is not enough.

A prophecy, spoken by the Divinity of Fate, names her as the one who will destroy Veltuur, the ruler of the underrealm. Yet Sinisa has spent a lifetime defying fate, and she has no intention of returning to the abyss that nearly consumed her.
Until she is given a reason she cannot ignore.

King Acari is still trapped below, and she will tear through realms, defy gods, and unravel destiny itself if it means bringing him home. But the underrealm does not release what it has claimed so easily. And something far older than prophecy is waiting for her in the dark.
