Cries of the Forsaken - Hardcover

by Kristopher Jerome (Author)

The Pact has been broken, gods have been slain, and the world of the Mortal Plane torn asunder. After the treachery of the Fallen One was exposed, the goddess Arra descended to the battlefield to save her champions, but at what cost? Nearly broken, the Army of Light returns to Illux, a city on the brink of civil war as refugees from all corners of the land flood its gates. Factions form between Edmund, a member of the City Watch loyal to the missing Lady Ren, and Castille, the grizzled Paladin commander who has long thirsted for power. The powderkeg in Illux threatens to ignite with the appearance of the mysterious woman Tess and her army infused with godly blood. Meanwhile, a band of companions led by the two surviving Balance Monks try to awaken the gigantic Divine Beasts to defend the City of Light from the coming siege. Across the Mortal Plane, other powers are at work, some seeking to save mankind, and others to destroy it. Old enemies long-thought dead return and new heroes rise from the ashes of the broken Pact to decide the very fate of the world.
