Fiona Lawrence, the Last Epoch Warden, stands as humanity's final bulwark against a tide of corrupted Fae. Her command is absolute, her strategies brilliant, but her true weapon is a double-edged sword: the power to bend time itself. Each nudge against the river of causality, each stolen moment that turns the tide of battle, is paid for with a piece of her own life.
A hard-won, ash-stained victory reveals the futility of her war. The enemy's numbers are endless, fueled by a supernatural plague called the Creeping Rot. But a desperate, psychic vision from her lost love, a captive Fae prince, unveils a truth more horrifying than any battlefield. The prince is not just a prisoner-he is the engine powering the plague, his agony twisted into the very weapon destroying their world.
The war of attrition is a lie, a grand diversion. The only path to true victory lies in a desperate quest: to reassemble the fragments of an ancient, reality-altering Cipher. Fiona must abandon her army and journey to forgotten, ghost-haunted ruins where time itself has curdled. Allied with a stoic knight from a rival order, she hunts for a cure, only to find that the Fae warlord is a mere puppet, and a far more ancient, cosmic entity is pulling the strings. In a war against a god who un-makes reality, the price of salvation might be more than just a life-it might be existence itself.
