The son of a farmer, no wiser to the will of the gods than the other poor souls in the fields next to him. Rhydian only knew as much as the priests would tell the poor peasants of his village... and it wasn't much. A prince, bathed in blood and hungrier for death than he cares to admit. War following in his wake, he seeks only to live up to his name as the Acolyte of the vengeful goddess of pain, Azuara. The Collapse was killing more and more each day, and now with a warlord prince tearing up any village he gets his hands on, Rhydian must find a way to speak with the patron of his own kingdom. But the gods have spoken for years, having gone silent when the first waves of disease and disaster began to spread through the world.

A Day of Sorrow, The Tales of Old by FreeReinVikings
3 parts Complete
A day like any other, turned to blood and misery in the blink of an eye. The soul devourers had been withheld for thousands of years, the residents beyond Riverin's walls growing comfortable. Their ignorance could be their downfall as everything crumbles. Even the veterans aren't prepared for an assault, underestimating their opponent. Carnade, born to another land, has found a home in Riverin. He's always known how great a threat the devourers were, but he never thought their first strike would be Riverin. Now he has to choose between protecting his family or the people he swore himself to. Derosai was born and raised in Riverin, dedicating her life to abolishing the soul devourer race from the face of Alatine. Everything she worked toward. Everything her and her husband planned could be torn away. Her husband believes their son to be the key to ending the devourer blight and if he perishes, there won't be anyone to stop the second dark war. Alithium was born to another world, frozen and far from Riverin. Unlikely events destroy everything she holds dear, tearing her away from the only home she's ever known by thrusting her into a foreign land. One of heat and despair. She soon finds out how unwelcoming man can be, taken into a city on the brink of destruction. Her only goal is to escape. Their problems, man or devourer... it didn't concern her. Their faces, all the death, and all the screams. I can still see and hear them to this day - Crow Akroth This is A Day of Sorrow, By Dominik Sorensen. I hope you enjoyed the introduction, the first three chapters. If you did, you can find the full novel on amazon. The link is in my LinkTree in our bio. But, I do want to advise you to read (A Promise of Blood) before this novel. It takes place before A Day of Sorrow and is quite relevant to understand certain points of this novel. You can also find the order to read my novels in our bio.
