3 parts Ongoing The world has ended and only the unlucky have survived.
In the century since the Accident, Grayson Reid has spent his immortal life in servitude. Bound to Cardinal, an underground realm ruled by tyranny, he has blindly abided by Cardinal orders, unfazed by their cruelty or his own lost memories.
Follow the rules and you live; disobey and you will suffer a fate far worse than death.
That is until, one day, he wakes up to the memory of a woman on the run. Everywhere he goes, everywhere he turns there she is, in his mind's eye, beckoning to him. It is not long before Grayson too finds himself on the run, risking it all to finally take back what it is he lost all those years ago when the world was brought to its knees. After all, when you've hit rock bottom, how much more do you really have to lose?
There is only one thing Mazikeen hates more than Cardinals - Vultures. Primitive, hideous, and cannibalistic, they are a plague upon Obsidian. She should know, she spent most of her life hunting them. Then, when her father died at the claws of a Vulture, she resigned and joined the peaceful Owls. Just when Mazikeen was getting comfortable and thought the fight was over, she discovers a way to destroy the Vultures once and for all. Mazikeen knows that she must pick up her blades one last time to bring peace to Obsidian, even if it means teaming up with an arrogant Cardinal soldier.
