*Tier exclusive book*

The God of Death has ruled his domain in solitude for eons, untouched by time, unchallenged in his purpose. But when his sister, the capricious Goddess of Magic, presents him with a so-called gift, everything begins to unravel.

This gift is not an offering of power, nor a tool to aid him in his eternal duty. It is a mortal soul—a fragile, insignificant thing that has no place in the realm of the dead. A creation born of magic’s whim Rune rejects it outright, calling it a curse rather than a blessing. He refuses to be burdened with something so meaningless.

But fate is not so easily denied.

Day by day, the presence of this soul grows stronger, binding itself to his world in ways even he cannot understand. It is unnatural, an anomaly that should have never been—but the longer it lingers, the more impossible it becomes to ignore. What began as a fleeting amusement takes root in the underworld, shifting the balance of all he has ever known.

She began as nothing more than a toy of the gods, a human spirit twisted by magic’s touch. But in defying fate, she becomes something more. Something eternal. Something his.

This is the story of how a lost soul became the first of her kind. How a god who wanted nothing found something he could never let go.

The birth of the first Grim Reaper.

Step into a tale of destiny and defiance, of gods and mortals, of power born from nothing—and the extraordinary force of what should have never existed.
