The world is in turmoil. The dead are being brought back to life, demons are rampaging, and the once blessed gods and goddesses have shunned their creations leaving the world to be destroyed. War is the only thing Skye Firebird has ever known. Raised as an orphan soldier, he has only ever fought. Born after the Great Apostasy, he has never believed in the mythical deities of his ancestors. All that changes when a chance encounter with the Goddess of Life and Death, Jacqueline, disrupts his life forever.

The Goddess's Hero

My tear stained face was currently stuffed into my lavender sheets. A knock sounded at my door, but I refused to answer. I knew who it was and I knew what they wanted. The door hinges creaked as they opened. 


"It's time to get some oil for those hinges, my dear." Deidra commented as she had for the past two months. She rolled in a tray of food. Food made me sick. My appetite had left my body a long time ago. "Today, we have buttermilk pancakes with bananas and strawberries along with a cantaloupe and honeydew salad with an orange juice to take away that thirst." Thirst? When was the last time I felt that? Deidra came across my line of vision and waved a hand in front of my face. I didn't even blink. My senses were numb. Everything was useless. Gratefully, she left me alone. She had other duties to attend to.
