Deimos Osburn has been missing and ostracised for years, seemingly disappearing into thin air after mass devastation. There has been no information and little understanding of what to do about his absence - the public have begun to accept he is most likely dead.

Not Adrastea, though. If there is anyone who will turn the nation upside down to find out the truth, it's her. Driven by the desire for justice and a longing for a lost friend, she begins to unravel decades worth of lies, secrets, and complicated history to figure out where he went. 

Follow them both as the injustice and cruelty of their world begins to tear at the seams, threatening to undo everything their families have worked for.

Deimos was not the only child to be taken by the cult of Kosmos. One of the 'other' tortured Children of Chrysis never truly stood a chance - unless a bargain was struck between them and a misthios. Eos, a very lost child of Kosmo, will only have so much time to show her brothers and sisters the truth; otherwise, she'll have to kill them. However, with the cult already beginning to fall, it may already be too late. With a past life that involves a Demi-god, a lycaon and oracles, Eos may be the key to finding the sanity in those lost to the cult or, she may just be their destruction. And, her past might have just as many secrets as our Heroes does... [Takes place during the main game and after - with elements from The Legacy of the First Blade DLC towards the end]

With a drug lord for a father and an addict for a mother, Jade Taylor has been dealt a pretty shabby hand in life. Her childhood was spent in a constant state of fear, her only solace being her two half-sisters, Charlotte and Bailey, who were forced to live the nightmare alongside her. Her father finally got caught when she was seven and for a fleeting, white-hot second, it seemed that things were going to be okay. She should've known better. She should've known that her mother would jump ship, choose the drugs and not the daughter. Suddenly left abandoned, navigating the murky waters of life in care, it took a little while longer for Jade to find her place in the world. Now, finally, she has. At the age of eighteen, Jade is counting down the days before her exams are over, excited to spend the summer with her two best friends and boyfriend. Unfortunately, things don't always go according to plan... not in a town like Greencliff. Upon meeting the Coleman's - a family that fits so perfectly into the 'gang' culture she so desperately wants to avoid - Jade finds herself teetering on the edge of a blade, carefully balanced between the life she wants and the life she wants to escape. The question is... which way will she fall? (This description is a work in progress and may be subject to change!)
