In Aetheris, gods are not born. They are made-forged through sacrifice, belief, and the ruthless hands of godmakers. Once revered as saviors, these creations have become weapons of war, leaving the world in ruins of blood and ash.
Thalia Lightguard is the last godmaker. Sold to the kingdom of Draemyr as a child, she was raised under stone walls and watchful priests, praised as a miracle yet treated as a tool. But the weight of her gift is also a curse. Every ritual demands sacrifice, every creation leaves blood on her hands, and the gods she forges rise only to destroy.
When visions begin to haunt her-whispers of the old gods, and a prophecy that she alone will decide the fate of mortals-Thalia faces an impossible choice: continue her duty and build another god of war, or break the chains of faith and become the first godslayer.
In a world where devotion feeds destruction, how much of her humanity must she sacrifice to end the reign of gods?
