It's been centuries since the Great War ended. Yet, the divine fallout from the death of godlike entities continues to plague the World of Taldania. Aftergods, or the Shadows of the Fallen Gods, were too powerful to be completely banished. Bereft of the guiding conscience possessed by their former selves, these entities rampage across the lands, causing wanton destruction.
Only the self-proclaimed God Hunters, an independent organisation of skilled fighters, magicians and inventors, claim to be able to put an end to this threat. Yet, the people do not believe them, seeing them as nothing more than greedy liars who possess only pretty words and useless weapons.
Khalfinge Meir, heir to the Blade of Fire, is utterly convinced that he will be the one to lay low these creatures. But amidst the chaos and destruction, the politicking of the ruling classes, and the hostility of the Trackers' Guild, he finds that he might lose his way before his goal is ever achieved...

Fate's Hymn [ARCHIVED]
{[Completed]} Book 1 of the Fate Series They were never quite accepted. Never fit into normal life in Tal'Dorei. They were never quite right. Then they found each other. A roaming group of misfits. They were never trained to get caught up in this though. They might be stronger than average humans, but no they weren't paid enough for this shit. They were there though. They were fighting it though. Not because they wanted to, but because they had to. They were caught up in another draw of strings. Would they be the next lines to be cut on The Fates strings? They didn't know. All they knew was that they were another group caught up in another of Fate's Hymns. *So, while I do not like to do this, I have decided to abandon this story. As well as it's sequel. There are a multitude of reasons for it, which will be explained in the most recent chapter that I just published. But this story has been completed, but it's sequel has not, and I have no plans to complete it as of now.*Complete

However, recently, a group of revolutionaries has started rising underground, forming an army of their own with the goal of destroying the Great Demon Lord. Together with their newly grown special powers and for some even special weapons, they seek to fight against the demons to return their freedom.
