A half-elf, half-human outcast at birth, Michael was raised in a secluded village by his loving parents, away from the world that hated him. Then, one day, his village was destroyed, and Michael lost everything. His home, his parents, and even his own life. But death was not final for Michael. A mysterious and powerful entity called the Divine rose him from the dead to accomplish a mighty task. In the fantasy land of Anathoth, where different races have been taught to hate and distrust each other, Michael must become the hero they desperately need. Even though the land has shunned and mostly forgotten the Divine, Michael must learn to trust Him because a terrifying threat creeps ever closer. An ancient evil from the mountains to the west is coming, bringing death and destruction with it. Aided by special gifts given to him by the powerful Divine, Michael sets out on a journey where he finds himself in unfamiliar and uncomfortable territory. He meets both allies that he must convince to work together and enemies intent on his destruction. Can Michael overcome the obstacles in his way and convince the land to come together to face the ancient foe? Or will the wickedness that banished the Divine and taught the land to hate each other allow the ancient evil to conquer them all?
