Millennia ago, a war was fought between fae — those who hungered for the magic inherent in humanity’s blood and souls, and those who recognized that hunger for the evil it was.
The hungry lost. But so, too, the victors.
Because the cost of that victory was the sundering of worlds, magic that consumes life itself and a curse upon Azar’s line.
And a Promise.
These are the stories that echo from long ago and shape those we tell today. Of heroes. Of villains. And of those simply trying to survive.
