When Realms Fall

The gods forged a weapon to end their wars and chained it inside the soul of an unfortunate immortal king.

Elannah Veyne has spent her entire life ashamed, bullied into believing the shadows under her skin mark her as cursed. When the first chain breaks and the sky begins to crack, she is torn from the life she's always dreamt of leaving behind.

Pulled into the immortal Court of Mournveil, she learns the power inside her is far more dangerous than she suspected. It marks her as the only one capable of commanding the divine chains that bind the Hollow.

She is bound to Evric, who has spent centuries containing the Hollow, a sentient, world-ending force that whispers sweet and cruel nothings alike at the edges of his mind, waiting for the day it can wear his body like a crown.

As rival Courts scheme, the Veil between realms thins, and the gods themselves move against them, Elannah and Evric are faced with an impossible choice: preserve the chains keeping the world intact, or defy the gods who forged this curse and break them to see what the world could become in their absence.

If they fail, the monster won't just be free.

It will be wearing his face.
