"I didn't ask for a drop of a god's essence, why should a god hunt for it?"
Sometimes we don't choose trouble; it chooses us. Sometimes you accidentally steal from a dead god. But you end up on the universe's most awkward fetch quest when the god awakens in another body, and what seemed like a drop you didn't choose for yourself is an invaluable part of his essence.
In a world ravaged by six devastating wars, eighteen-year-old student Ernesto Mela finds himself trapped outside the protective walls of Central Mendea. When drops of a dead god's essence are unwillingly poured into him, Ernesto gains incredible new powers, and he's intoxicated by them.
But there's a problem: the god Ramaphosa has awakened in another body, and he wants back the very essence that allowed him to survive death, the essence now coursing through Ernesto's veins. As Ernesto discovers his growing abilities, he must face an impossible choice: surrender the power he's come to love, or stand against a reincarnated deity who will stop at nothing to reclaim what was once his.
Follow Ernesto Mela as he struggles to master his newfound abilities, save his war-torn world, and defend himself against an ancient god bent on revenge and destruction.
