CANTUS LUCIS: A Prequel to The Lunadae SagaBefore the Moon learned sorrow, the world was sung, not spoken. Selmara, youngest High Priestess in generations, serves a faith where miracles are real and the divine still answers. The Mother, a goddess whose voice once wove the world into harmony returns for a desperate prayer that pierces the Veil: the King is dying. But divine grief bends the laws that hold the world together.
and Selmara is asked to help her defy them. While the city rejoices in a blinding, eternal dawn, the priesthood is divided. Between the fanatical devotion of her sisters and the warnings of a watchful skeptic, Selmara searches for a forbidden hymn said to touch the first spark of creation. What begins as an act of mercy becomes a turning point the world was never meant to survive. A miracle is witnessed.
A soul is changed. A new hunger is born. Caught between blind faith and a truth that could unmake the cosmos, Selmara must decide what she is willing to sacrifice. To protect the light, she may have to master the shadows, and strike a bargain that will haunt history as the world's first heresy. Some loves should die. Some lights should fade. A song powerful enough to save a life may doom an entire world.
Cantus Lucis is the tragic origin of the vampires-a story of cosmic betrayal, the hollowing weight of grace, and love that broke the stars. It is the dawning of the hunger that echoes throughout eternity in The Lunadae Saga.
