Pantheon: Trial of Oblation. Tales from the Avah Saga, #9

After a long and perilous journey, Sinhar and his cadre of warrior mages arrive at the gates of Dabomir Prefecture. Here, the ancient masters of the Mystic Order will perform a forbidden rite-one meant to cast the soul of the murderer Yaphet Orinse into a realm beyond mortal comprehension known only as The Void. Haunted by what he has seen Yaphet do, Sinhar marches on, determined to fulfill his oath and reclaim his standing among his peers.
Under the command of the formidable Zarley Allactite, the apprentices steel themselves for their sacred duty. Yet, none of them are prepared for the darkness that stirs within Dabomir. Villages lie silent. Shadows move without form, and deep within the prefecture, Yaphet encounters a being who calls herself a diety-a goddess who unveils the grim truth of his past and the monstrous destiny that awaits him.
Now, Yaphet must make a choice. One cruel enough to reshape the world itself.
