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?

"Collect some of the blood," Alis whispered to one of her sisters, "and offer to paint Ol's skin with it. Try to seduce him."

Alis observed keenly from afar, trying to lose herself in the small crowd of her sisters, and freezing her heart to Afena's sobs and pleas. The wretched Inarenta kept asking them to kill her. Alis would have happily complied, but she needed Afena to live and fulfill her cause.
