SYNOPSIS **
Breena
Taljain’s idyllic days in Araboth came to a skidding halt when circumstances
forced her into the dangerous hinterlands. The dire sacrifice she made to
protect her comrades tainted her heart with hatred and despair. To cleanse
herself she must outrun Death’s relentless pursuit and venture into the bleak
unknown. With the odds stacked against her, stumbling into love when she least
expects it may very well be her saving grace.
Meanwhile,
succumbing to the Patriarch’s devious traps has Galbrecht Atalir questioning
his motives. The folly of his recklessness has left him physical scarred and
mentally traumatized. Now he must overcome more adversity as the wrath of the
Sin Ministry bears down upon him. He will need more than wits and quick fists
to find the truth he has sought for seven years.
Alas,
every second Breena is apart from Galbrecht draws her further into strife. With
her world rapidly crumbling inwards, she puts everything on the line for a last
stand against the ruthless force that threatens to destroy all she holds dear….

Excerpt:
Breena
frowned at the same time Helel averted his gaze in shame. Never mind
the question of how she knew all this. What was her point? “I don’t
see how—”
“Of
course you don’t,” she spat. “The world went on. Nothing you
did or didn’t do mattered. What transpires today is no different.
What is the purpose of it all? What matters to you one moment is
meaningless the next. Nothing you do affects the greater scheme of
things. You are merely a hiccup in the pulse of the world.” She
turned from Breena and craned her neck backwards. “This is the
truth, Breena. You will live and die. Others will rise after you and
they, too, will live and die. Nobody will remember you. Nobody will
remember them. Do you understand now? Nothing
matters.”
“Then why
are you—”
“This
isn’t about me,” she rebutted. “You are just another flower in
the field, Breena. You sprout from a seed and bloom into something
special. The world adores you as you blossom. It takes advantage of
your sweet aroma and praises your beauty until you wither away. What
good are you then? You’ve become nothing. Soon you die cold,
wilted, and alone. The world tramples on your remains, yes, but it
does not mourn you. No…another seed will take your place and carry
on as you had until it shares the same fate. Eventually the field
will turn so barren that nothing else will grow. Then it will serve
another purpose. The endless cycle of no true beginnings or endings
will continue.
“Life
goes on with or without you. Your existence will have no impact on
the grand scheme of things. A single tree won’t make a rainforest
any more than trouncing me would rid this plane of black emotions.
Years, decades, even centuries from now, I will be born again and so
the sequence will endure. Forever we shall dance this depressive,
endless waltz.” She glared at Breena again. “I will change
things, though. I intend to stop the cycles of rebirth. None will
suffer as I have then.”
“That’s
wrong. We live to make our own experiences. Joy and sorrow, love and
hatred, pain and pleasure…it’s all part of the blessing! Who are
you to put a price on it?” Breena pressed her hands against her
hips. “Your flawed logic sickens me. You’re insane!”
