Sage & Saltwater

"If I believed in fate, and I guess I do now, I would say sorry for whatever I did in a past life. I've never had it easy, but at least my life was normal before. Now, I'm painfully aware that the universe is anarchic, that God is real, and more importantly, so is the Devil. I'd write it off, call it psychosis, a typical reaction to a traumatic accident but... I could never have imagined him. I could not have conjured the electricity of his presence, or worse, the weight of his absence. And when he looks at me it's something like love... and suspicion."

Gehenna is not what Mav expected when she was cast down, abandoned, and in a fugue state.

It's breathtaking gemstone mountains, living forests, and beryl oceans.

But it's also superstitious and unforgiving.

Mav fits a little too cleanly into the prophecy that has shaken Gehenna for thousands of years. She'd never hurt anyone, of course, but when all signs point to her guilt she must plead her innocence. It's hard to defend someone you don't even know.
