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

Casandra slowly opened her eyes and saw nothing but some light and Lakis’ nose. He has a handsome nose, she thought to herself still in a daze. A few seconds later his face came into view and she saw him above her. He grinned when he saw her come to. She realized after a second that he was holding her in his arms. She blushed as she felt his muscles supporting her body and the way his fingers felt so near her skin. 


He blushed a bit too and stammered as he quickly put her down, “oh, pardon me. See, you passed out just now for about ten minutes. When you fell I didn’t want you to hit your head, so I caught you.” 


“Oh, please do not worry,” she said slowly, coming back completely. She looked about frantically as soon as she remembered the dog. Where did it get to? What did it want? Lakis watched her for a moment, confused. 


“The dog!” she exclaimed excitedly. “Where did it get to? Why was it here?”
