The Keepers

She wakes bound on the back of a horse. The gods are gone. And the world is no longer gentle. Tsunala is carried through a land that no longer remembers mercy—guarded by monsters, watched by a half-breed who should be her enemy, and pulled toward truths she is not ready to name. Power lingers beneath her skin, unclaimed and dangerous. As desire stirs where fear should live, something ancient begins to breathe again. The gods, long silent, are waking—not as legends, but as beings who can bleed, ache, and love. This is a story about what happens when divinity remembers its humanity. And what it means to belong to a world that no longer believes in you. For readers drawn to dark romantasy rooted in character, devotion, and emotional intensity—this is the beginning of the Abandoned Gods series. For those who step into this world— Additional artefacts—both physical and digital—exist beyond these pages, carrying fragments of what was lost. They can be found through the author‘s website.
