Death should have been the end of Aerlene Ray.
Instead, the seventeen-year-old girl-afflicted with single-sided deafness-awakens from the brink of the afterlife. She returns with senses sharpened beyond human limits, and an invisible wound etched deep into her soul.
Beyond the mirror of her mind, unfamiliar whispers call her name. Shadowy entities linger at the edge of her breath.
When the skies fall silent and darkness begins collecting the debt of the souls, Aerlene must traverse forgotten realms. Her only guides are an immortal cursed by Heaven, and a spirit summoner seeking his own redemption.
Together, they must uncover the shattered fragments of an ancient relic, visible only to those who have died and returned-shards of power capable of shaking the foundations of fate... or erasing it entirely.
In a world where destiny carves its price into the soul...
What is free will when every path leads to the same end?
And who truly holds dominion over life and death: God, the Devil... or beating drum of your own heart?

Iyrin is not a story about defeating darkness, but rather about understanding why light and darkness both exist, and then choosing the path to take between them.
