They say the gods are dead.
In New Haven, one just woke up in a girl who never asked to be chosen.
Beneath the acid-slick skies of a drowned canyon city, where advan-core tech pulses through rusted ruins and the air itself could kill you, a band of teenage misfits does what no one else dares: steal from High Haven.
WILLOW, rebel leader and five minutes older than her chaos - wired twin, CANYON, is only supposed to hijack a mystery shipment. Simple job. In, out, vanish.
But inside the armored airvan isn't tech or credit chips - it's a god's heart.
A living godpiece. And it chooses her.
Now her veins burn black, her mind fractures with divine whispers, and something ancient is using her body as a conduit. The power could save New Haven - or destroy it. It's also killing her.
Enter NOA - a silver-tongued smuggler with a hidden past, war scars, and too many knives. She's from High Haven, and her loyalty flickers like a glitch. She says she wants to help the Scarves. Canyon doesn't trust her.
But Willow? She can't stop looking at her.
As revolutions ignite and monsters stir beneath the city, New Haven teeters on the edge of collapse. The godpiece is changing everything. And something older than memory is waking up in the deep.
Would you betray your blood to save the woman you love? Would you burn a city to save the world?
Grab your scarf. The canyon's calling.
