When an unknown virus spreads silently, humanity fails to react in time. Within days, men fall ill and disappear. Three weeks later, no trace remains of the male population, and civilization collapses. The story follows three main protagonists: Thiago Álvarez, a Spanish soldier returning to Mallorca unaware he is one of the last living men. His diary reveals loss, pain, and the struggle to survive in a devastated continent. Tulsi Galbard, former U.S. intelligence director, takes leadership of the new female military order after the disappearance of all male commanders. From a nuclear command plane, she organizes an international network of female military and scientific leaders to coordinate what remains of civilization. Amaia Saliba, a former scientist turned nun in Bhutan, has visions of the disaster before it happens. Convinced she must spiritually guide the survivors, she embarks on a journey to the Ganges, leaving behind teachings and prophetic signs. One year later, historian Elías Román, one of thirteen men who survived in bunkers, collects testimonies from women who managed to maintain pockets of order in places like South Korea, Israel, Switzerland, and Panama. These interviews reveal how civilization was sustained amid chaos. Just as humanity begins to adapt, a greater threat emerges: the virus was only the first phase of an alien intervention

For as long as memory serves, it has consumed the lands of Druzatria, stripping away freedom and peace from the kindred who dwell there, claiming countless innocent lives as casualties. For Onyx, life has been blood and sand. She is a gladiator, made for battle, bound by chains. She was forged in the Queen's arenas, raised not as a daughter but as a weapon, honed by violence and bloodshed. Abandoned by her father and gripping to the fading memory of her mother; she's learned to bury any weakness deep, to survive at all costs. Though her power rivals that of the strongest, she is bound-imprisoned by the Queen's merciless hold, wielded only as a tool of destruction. The arena has sculpted her into an unbreakable warrior, yet she is locked in a relentless struggle with herself. Haunted by the urge for something more. Until an Orcish Halfbreed enters the pit, the clash of their blades ignites a fate neither could foresee-a fight that will alter the course of her fate forever. Setting both on a path neither expected. Will she fall further under the Queen's iron grip, or rise and claim the one thing she has fought for her entire life? Will she lose everything she has fought to keep? And is she willing to pay in blood?
