Crimson Legacies: Ash & Myst Saga
The Goddess Promised Peace
For centuries, the Goddess’s light held the realms together… until her chosen cleric shattered the covenant and ignited a civil war. Though peace has returned, whispers persist that the rebellion was never truly defeated, only driven into the shadows.
Sarabina expected nothing more than a quiet life in her village. When a chance encounter awakens a magical heritage, she becomes a threat the Goddess herself cannot ignore and the last hope for those who seek the truth behind the war.
In the Capital, Prince Rohirth struggles to fill the void left by his father’s death. When rumors of a resurgent rebellion surface, he rises to confront the Goddess’s enemies, only to find his doubts growing faster than his victories.
As Sarabina and Rohirth are drawn onto a collision course, one dangerous question binds their fates:
What secret could the girl possess that is powerful enough to threaten an immortal deity?
Crimson Legacies is a sweeping, character-driven fantasy that explores the razor-thin line between virtue and corruption, faith and fear, redemption and ruin.
