Pantheon: The Contact. Tales from the Avah Saga, #3

The sins of the past take new form in the next entry in the series. Yaphet Orinse has wanted nothing more than to join the Mystic Order his entire life. Few wield magic in the land of Sebel, and the few who do stand above all the rest. Yaphet's dream, however, has become a nightmare. His Holiness the Asum has gone missing. All that was found in his wake were mangled bodies and pools of blood. A manhunt has begun, and Yaphet finds himself as suspect number one.
With the holy leader still missing, the mages are willing to do whatever it takes to get answers. Leading the investigation is Master Abazon, hero from the war days and champion of his people. The only one left on Yaphet's side is the huntress Dahan. Even so, the odds are stacked against her. The Mystic Order wields deadly magic, commands a vast army, and their fortress, known as The Tendril, is impregnable.
Her only way forward is through deception and unexpected allies. Dahan isn't quite sure who she can trust, but saving an innocent man pushes her into the fire.
