Dead Woman's System: Life After Death

She died in fire. She woke in bone. Now, she returns in silence.



Velrona Azaeth was a legend—The Mourning Saint of the Obsidian Veil. Necromancer. Cult matriarch. A woman who whispered to the dead and ruled the living. Feared by empires. Worshipped by thousands. Betrayed by her own disciples.



They burned her alive.

To reclaim her power—or to destroy what remains of it—she must possess the dead, haunt the living, and outmaneuver a system that may not be on her side.
