The gods have killed all the witches.

Well, one of them still survives. And thankfully, her sisters were able to take many of the gods with them. But when a goddess resurfaces to take over the human world, will our heroine accept a call to stop her? Or will she prefer to be left alone and live a simple, peaceful life by herself?

And what will she do if others come expecting her to help? After all, Afena is known to have killed a god by herself. How can she escape that kind of reputation?

Afena Inarenta

Afena came back to their camp from the river, freshly washed but clothed. Her hair was still wet, and she started the fire to sit close to it and let its warmth dry her white locks.

Without saying a word, Rudsis got on his feet to head to the river in turn. Very few words were exchanged between the two of them, and Afena didn't mind it. She could see that it made him uncomfortable, however, being no doubt used to having more than only one person around him, and being able to have a choice of who to speak with if conversation wasn't flowing with someone in particular. Afena, on the other hand, had been living by herself for the better part of of two hundred years. Silence, and her own thoughts, had come to be comforting.
