A TALE OF GOOD VS EVIL UNLIKE ANY OTHER Traverse through Arrdus with Silla, Omega, and company on an adventure rife with hardships, hope, despair, love, and magic. Can Silla, a seemingly normal woman in her early twenties, take on her predestined role of Goddess, and survive? Can Silla locate and protect the precious, powerful items of her predecessors? Many opposing forces exist; The Faithful, most fervent followers of the seven gods and goddesses have for millennia crusaded against the Goddess reincarnations. Though they are vast in number and influence, perhaps they pale in comparison to another of Silla’ s future Faulk, far to the northeast in his walled-in nation has been putting into motion plans of catastrophic evil that will test both Silla and Omega in more ways than they yet know. There are many characters worth falling in love with, but it is impossible to say who will survive and who will perish.
