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

“What do you think?” he asked her in a soft voice. She looked at his face, speechless. She worried if she spoke she would disturb something very beautiful and sacred. The moon’s light streaked through the fog of the ocean and illuminated some of the ornately decorated walls and gateways. 


She allowed Lakis to lead her through the first gateway which housed a mighty courtyard with an obelisk of pure white marble and was capped with a shimmering metal. There was a mighty, circular pool in the center of the courtyard, and there was no roof on this courtyard which allowed the night sky to be reflected in the waters. The moon took center stage in this reflection, but you could also see dotted throughout the many millions of stars up above. It was like the most brilliant tapestry you could imagine, and she could not resist reaching her hand down into the waters and seeing the ripples of the water causing the seamless reflection to move as if it was dancing.
