Status: Outlining
Years after Koen left her behind at Oakenyard to complete his quest, Erikini has built a quieter life with his brother Eadred and their daughter, Jezelle. But when word arrives that Koen and Sylvanus have raised their banners against their father, old wounds reopen and buried feelings return with dangerous force.
Drawn by love, vengeance, and the promise of justice, Erikini leaves home to cross a realm being torn apart by war. Along the way, she encounters the legends growing around Koen, the horrors committed in his name, and the uneasy truth that war rarely creates the heroes people need it to.
As the dead whisper at the edges of her path and the cost of rebellion rises, Erikini must decide whether she is pursuing justice, destiny, or a dream that was never truly hers.
