King Nebuchadnezzar was a beast of war, ripping through nation after nation and carrying home spoils to great Babylon. He was unaware of two ruthless spiritual entities tasked with keeping his war-mongering in check, neither did he contemplate gods from neighbouring territories and long-imprisoned enemies shaking awake and setting their gaze upon the principality of Babylon. Amid tension among gods, spirits, and angels, King Nebuchadnezzar prepares for battle against the kingdom of Media despite an arranged marriage treaty signed by his late father. But Princess Amytis of Media is determined to do anything to keep the beastly king from bringing war to her home. Will she succeed, and will Nebuchadnezzar survive the crossfire between gods, spirits, and angels? @HistoricalFiction Top 3 Reads (The Historical Awards 2022)

Five teenagers who've lost everything but each other. A two-thousand-year-old king seeking revenge for a wrong committed centuries ago. A magical amulet. A prophecy from a captive mage. What would you do if you acquired a relic stolen from a king, lost your parents, and were forced to flee your home with two strangers, all in the same day? When Chad finds out he has a chance to end the two-thousand year long war that has torn his homeland apart, you'd think he'd jump at it. Right? Wrong. Wracked with guilt over a death from his childhood and crippled by grief, he stumbles along on a series of adventures with four companions bent on ending Agnir's reign. And he fully intends to assist them in saving the world without the help of his magic. But after discovering the true nature of the Amulet, an ancient relic stolen from an ancient king, it looks like he may not have a choice in the matter. He must either face and defeat his inner demons, or condemn the people of his homeland to endless tyranny. Pursued by Agnir's forces and frequently summoned by a strange old mage in his sleep, Chad finally achieves victory over himself. But can he defeat an enemy who possesses immortality? *** Any pictures I use for character or setting visualization do not belong to me unless I mention it specifically. *WARNING* I do have a scene which has a heavy theme of suicide. The chapter will be marked with this symbol: •|• and a warning at the beginning. I sincerely hope it isn't triggering to anyone, and the way I wrote it, it hopefully won't be, but just in case, there's the warning. :) *** The lovely cover is by the lovely @sarsar14 *** If you are reading this story on any platform other than Wattpad you are very likely to be at risk of a malware attack.
