This is the story of a man haunted not just by the memory of someone he lost, but by the weight of his own failures. In the silence of her room, he is trapped between reality and hallucination-her face in every corner, her voice in every breath, her absence heavier than her presence ever was. He wrestles with guilt, madness, and the desperate need to hold on, even as everything inside him unravels. At its heart, this is not only a tale of horror, but of love, loss, and the unbearable human struggle to let go.

Fifty years ago, demons invaded the mortal realm of Dargon, leaving a trail of destruction across the five kingdoms. The six Guardians of that generation united the kingdoms and fought back against the demons, scattering their ashes to the winds. Then, they vanished into legend, and with them, their powers. When the lost powers awaken in six strangers across the mortal realm once again, they seek answers... What danger has compelled the powers to reappear after half a century of peace? There are rumours that another demon army gathers in the fiery realm of the Abyss, greater than the first and led by a cunning mastermind whose motivations are unknown. But something doesn't add up. The deeper they dig, the more twisted the truth becomes and the more uncertain their path forward. Who... or what must they truly save their world from? As destinies unravel and loyalties are tested, one question lingers: What if saving the world... means trusting the very force that could end it? An epic trilogy of gods, mortals, and fates intertwined-where it seems that things may have been set in motion long before anyone could ever have anticipated and the path forward may just be the one that ends in death.

Some Legends Fade. Others refuse to die. For two hundred years Kaius has cheated death, defied fate, and outlasted time itself. He is the sword behind countless victories, has bled for emperors, slain monsters and demi-gods alike and altered the course of history but such triumphs always come at a cost. His friends. His family. His flesh. Even his very soul. Now, Skyrim teeters on the brink and threatens to drag the rest of the world down with it. Civil war stains the land red, vampires prowl the night and for the first time in 4,000 years, dragons are returning as harbingers of the greatest of their kind; Alduin, the World-Eater. Yet, while all eyes turn skyward a darker horror stirs beneath their feet, one that makes dragonfire merciful in comparison. Fate demands Kaius rise once more to challenge it, but this time even a legend won't survive alone.
