Casandra believes that magic is for desperate people who gave up on their
chances of victory. The world is a harsh place where people abuse one another and you must have a thick skin to make it. Forgiveness is not on her list of attributes.
While on a trip to Alexandria with her archeologist father, she discovers an ancient crown which changes everything. The crown opens her eyes to a world of the dead, where dwells a young man who sets her world into a spiral. He shows her that many of her assumptions about her place in life, her ideas of reality, and most importantly, what she felt love was, are not real after all.

The two set off across the desert and even speak to the ancient voices of the oracles discovering who they are and were meant to be. The entwining love between them blossoms as they grow on their journey of adventure, battles, and struggles to become complete.

Uncovering the Goddess of Death

They both sort of just stood there smiling and laughing with each other for a long while until Lakis finally broke the wordless conversation. 


“So, what have you been up to?” he asked her, taking a seat on a large boulder. He motioned to her to sit beside him and she began to answer as she climbed up beside him.


“Oh, well, my dad's been super busy. He just discovered the temple of the goddess Isis. It looks like a bunch of rocks and stuff, but it made him excited.”


He grinned but seemed confused. “The temple was lost? Wow, I guess it’s true that folks haven’t prayed there in a while, huh?”


She burst out laughing, assuming what he said was a joke, and he just grinned and chuckled with her. “Yeah,” she answered after her laughing fit ended, “you could say that! Hey, you want to go check it out? I bet my dad would love to show it to you!” 


“Oh yeah?” he said, quirking one eyebrow upwards, “I haven’t been there in a while, so I guess I’ll go check it out.”
