Legacy of Light and Shadow — Ryan Kirk

Following their defeat at the hands of the wandering clans, the emissaries of Void descend upon a rebellious world, seeking to harvest the essence of life itself: corrupted hearts, vital to their master's eternal war. They encounter a land of untapped power, its young people standing defiantly against the force they cannot defeat.Leading the resistance is Bael, an ascended warrior whose mastery of adani rivals the emissaries' control of their esoteric powers. His decisive actions shatter the emissaries' plans but ignite a larger conflict that will test the fragile alliances of humanity.Meanwhile, Elyn, torn between her ties to Void and the family she betrayed, embarks on a perilous journey to prove her worth as a servant of destruction-only to find her fractured heart wavering between loyalty and redemption.As Void's shadow deepens, warriors, outcasts, and ascended beings must choose: embrace their slow decline or fight for a future where light and life may yet endure.
