Wander West, In Shadow [Slow Burn Dark Fantasy]

The world still smolders in the aftermath of the White Queen’s war. Fields lie fallow, towns stand abandoned, and the gods themselves seem weary. Into this desolation steps Martimeos, a young wizard tracing the vanished footsteps of his brother—a soldier who marched west to fight and never returned. His journey takes him through lands where demons trade in secrets, fae spin deadly riddles, and the wild witch Elyse wields her own enigmatic magic. Their path converges on Silverfish, a village strangled by thorns and cursed by stolen futures. Beneath its ruins lurks a horror that holds the key to his brother’s fate. Martimeos must unravel Silverfish’s tragedy before the shadows claim him too.
