Forfrit, a world that was thriving only recently, is dying fast and inevitably. The magic of its inhabitants is weakening, and where there used to be fertile fields, rifts are opening, seeping with darkness. Only a chosen hero summoned from another world can stop the destruction and stand against the dark.
But what should Dea—the very hero—do if he doesn’t want to save someone else’s world, risking himself? If it wasn’t part of his plans to become the chosen one of the goddess of light, and the power he received only hurts and frightens him?
Could the goddess have made a mistake?
There’s no time to search for answers. After all, the land is crumbling underfoot; the dark goddess weaves spiderwebs of intrigues; and the only choice offered is to save the world—or die together with it.
