[Story enhanced with images.] She never meant to lead; she never wanted to. But when a smoke-born entity begins devouring worlds, Adira might just be the last thing standing between life and oblivion. ********** Born with white hair, her cursed destiny is tied to the enemy and a power she barely understands. Adira has spent her life in hiding after a childhood tragedy shattered everything. Ebon, a smoke-born entity that devours the life of its host, has become a threat to humanity after collapsing other worlds. Adira has to step up as captain of her team tasked with the impossible: stop the cosmic force of darkness before it consumes everything across the galaxy. They say she's the key to ending the war. The one destined to stop Ebon. But destiny doesn't care that she's scared, that she doesn't want the weight of the universe on her shoulders. Because monsters aren't myths. They're real. With each mission, her powers grow...along with the secrets. Until the day she's forced to rise above, trained to fight the very force that has haunted her since the beginning. She is the final line of defense. The Last Dawnkeeper. Will she defeat an ancient entity that leaves only shrunken corpses and ash in its wake, or will she become a part of the abyss so many have succumbed to?
