When the gods fell silent, their names were buried in ash and ruin. Now, hunted by shadows and haunted by secrets, Liora and Aelius must uncover a forgotten divinity that could reshape their world-or end it. In a realm where memory is weaponised and truth is a curse, the only salvation may lie in a name no one dares to speak. Above the cursed forest, the village of Solsynne floats on dying magic. As its last defences wither, Aelius-born to a family of shadow-wielders-and Liora-adopted into their family and marked by a light she can't explain, are drawn into a legacy older than the village itself. Together with their family, Aelius and Liora stand as the village's final shield. But some powers were never meant to return-and some truths will burn everything they touch.
