In the conquered land of Enoss, Samael is a mage living in the slums of the capital city, Archill. Starvation is a daily threat, as his immense magical powers eat away at him from the inside. He is also attuned to the whispering of demons, as all mages are. And the voices are as hungry as Samael himself.
The invasive Serandan military occupies Archill, and magic is now illegal. On the run from the ever vigilant mage-hunters, the Knights of Soma, Samael must find a way to survive in the worst conditions. But little does he know, the Knights of Soma would be the least of his problems.
When disaster strikes, he has no choice but to rise and seek opportunity in the ashes. Will his powers be his salvation, or will he be another meal for the crows?

Waiting for Evangeline (Godling: Scions of Order and Chaos #0)
When your soul is too balanced to judge... the gods send you back to tip the scale! Creation and Destruction. Order and Chaos. Two forces eternal, twin truths of the Universe. They call themselves opposites, yet one cannot exist without the other - and in the realm of mortality, neither may act without agents. Enter the Nullis. Souls perfectly balanced. Neither righteous enough for Creation's embrace nor wicked enough for Destruction's claim. In their stillness lies potential - coveted by both sides, claimed by divine hands, and cast once more into life. This is the story of one such soul. Torn from the Soul's Abyss and touched by gods, he is reborn into a strange land at the foot of a mountain that scrapes the sky. He has no name, no past, and no clear future. The others call him simply: Nullis. Before him lies a proving - a gauntlet of magic, monsters, and mystery where power reigns and alignment reveals itself in every choice. Will Nullis ascend and earn true rebirth in the land of the living? Or will he fall once more into the Abyss... nameless, forgotten, and unmade?
