Publisher's Synopsis
PART 2 OF THE SERIES WINNER OF THE 2022 PENCRAFT FICTION-FANTASY AWARD
After devouring King Lycon, the tainted God Bishop stormed throughout the halls wreaking havoc in his wake. While Key and her party are desperately looking for a way out of the castle, they soon hear the thunderous steps of the Wolf God approaching. Kociel took one long look into his newly beloved face before pushing her into his brother's arms. "Go!" He screamed. He turned and walked into the hallway. Ignoring the pleas from Diane, He stood ready to give it all for the woman who smelt of lilacs and mint. But instead, he sees his father's massive-dark figure as it engulfs the passageway. Its bloodlust flowed through the halls like an ominous dark cloud of despair. Kociel once again hears Diane's voice, but it's distant. He smirks. "Maybe I'll be a better fit for you in the next life." So he thought before turning and facing a threat before him. He balled his fist tight, swallowing enough air to fill his lungs to burst, then released a mighty howl. The young man's cedar color body explodes into fur and fangs. Even the God Bishop pauses, slightly frightened as it stares into the eyes of the dark wolf Kociel. The two clash in the passageway, sending ripples throughout the castle, breaking the wall and destroying the foundation.Key covers Diane's eye as they watch the castle collapse, crushing everything inside.
Weeks later, strange sightings and mysterious noises emanated from the ruinous castle. So what's going on inside the walls of the Mon' Driel kingdom?
That's where our new story resumes. A new epic adventure with new magical elements expands the land of Bastion. New characters and unknown threats. Will Key determination hold?
