Now back on Wattpad! ---- In a land covered in eternal night, a young girl's light is all that stands between Mankind and the Forces of Darkness. When the Sun Goddess vanished under mysterious circumstances a thousand years ago, she left the land of Kuro blanketed in eternal night. Over time, the people learn to harness what remains of the Goddess: the precious and finite resource known as the Goddess Essence. Kurokyuu Orbs, miracles of modern technology, harvest the Goddess Essence and provide light and power to all. But there is a problem: the Goddess Essence is running out. And it couldn't have come at a worse time. Whispers abound of a growing evil in the North; stories of shadows that can only be harmed by the light of the sun. From out of the darkness rises the City of the Sun. Light Spires shine through all twenty-four hours, providing artificial sunlight for all. Everyone that is, but the residents of the Utter Darkness. In this forsaken place, Mina, a young orphan, is forced to beg and steal on the streets to sustain herself in the hardscrabble way of life. In the darkest corners, Marauders lurk, hunting little girls, searching for the one known only as "The Maiden". When Mina falls captive to a roving band of Marauders, she is faced with a life-altering decision: reveal the secret she has been hiding her entire life or stay silent and risk losing her already meager existence? When people die as a result of her inaction, Mina realizes her secret is no longer hers to keep. A secret that lies in a most unusual ability: The power to manifest sunlight...

Mina crosses the Great Darkness, venturing far beyond the Boundary of Light, only to find herself caught in a war between two nations. In a desperate attempt to find more sources for the Goddess Essence, the Dragon Emperor declares war upon the Island Nation of Mystika. In the meantime, the search continues for the missing Empress Miyun who has disappeared in search of her son. Across the sea, in the Island Nation, the young Kulas must assume the throne in the midst of a great conflict and protect his people. Mina and her companions come face-to-face with a threat far more diabolical than anyone has ever imagined. To make matters worse, Mina's powers seem to be waning the farther she goes past the Boundary of Light. Can Mina keep her powers in check long enough to defeat the Vessel of the Dark, whose powers are infinitely greater in the boundless darkness?
