The Gods Remember Dust

Risha is the Heir Ascendant to Novem. Next in line to the throne of an empire abandoned by its gods, she finds herself on the cusp of a glorious reign... until it is stolen from her, and she is forced to flee the capital in secrecy on the pain of death.

Esel is a man beautiful on the surface, but ugly in spirit... at least, that is what he would tell you if you were to ask him. A not-so-simple man who devotes his days to the creation of art in a small town at the edge of Novem, Esel hides a secret; he is an immortal. Once a wandering demigod and a warlord with hands steeped deeply in blood, Esel has laid his head on the laps of Mercy in search of peace and rest, until Risha crashes unceremoniously into his life.

Together, the both of them embark on a quest claim Risha's throne, seek an audience with the High Daimon of the Sun, and break Esel's curse of immortality. Simple, right?

Well, the Reader doesn't think so.
