Locked in a cell with his childhood torturer, can Valis master his forbidden magic before the darkness claims his soul?

Valis finally reached the sanctuary of Avristin, but the Holy City feels more like a death trap. Marked from birth by the dark god Qos, Valis is an eighteen-year-old foreigner with the enemy’s mark. One wrong move, and the Aesriphos warriors meant to protect him will become his executioners.

His birth father, Roba, is waiting in the monastery's prison, using their shared mark to turn Valis’s mind into a playground of agony. Valis is drowning in anxiety and trauma, but he isn't alone. Between the fathers who rescued him and a mentor who fears him as much as he wants him, Valis must find the strength to trust. This isn't just a war of gods—it's a battle for the found family that teaches him he’s worth saving.
