Hope

The Aspects, creators of reality, are long dead—slain by the Betrayer, whose final scheme gnaws at the foundations of existence. Slowly, inevitably, all things unravel toward annihilation. The last hope lies with one of the Aspects’ first children, who casts their soul into reincarnation, gambling on rebirth as something strong enough to halt the end. Reborn into a world of war and myth, the fragmented soul awakens in stages, its memories—and power—returning in fits and sparks. But time is short, and the Betrayer’s machinations run deep. As forgotten magic resurfaces and ancient truths unravel, the reincarnated must decide: Can a being forged in the ashes of divinity become more than its past, or is oblivion the only certainty?
