Of Crows and Foxes. Watchers, #1

Before the gods had names, before angels stood guard at the gates of paradise, two of the oldest beings in creation made a quiet promise. Eternity was always the promise. He is the fox at the roots, the whisper beneath the grass, the trickster who hands mortals the words that ruin them and the words that save them. She is the crow on the bough, the shadow at the deathbed, the keeper of the stories no one else dares remember.
Across the long arc of human history - from the garden where the first word was spoken, to the tower at Babylon, the marble halls of Rome, the plague-quiet streets of medieval Europe, the blood-soaked stones of Paris, the trenches of two world wars, and the neon code of a future still being written - they walk side by side, never quite together, never quite apart. Every empire they nudge into being.
Every revolution they whisper into the ear of a poet. Every dying soldier whose name is sung back into memory. Two old gods, far older than the religions that buried them, walking the ages because the world cannot be allowed to fall silent. A sweeping mythic novel of mischief and mercy, choice and consequence, this is the story of the two oldest tricksters and the eternity they have always kept for each other.
For readers of mythology reimagined, lyrical fantasy, and stories where gods walk in the cracks of human history.
