Emissary

When the dead refuse to rest, only she can bring them peaceFor Zerafine, bringing peace to the dead isn't just duty – it's a calling she'll pursue even when others fear and shun the red-robed priests of Death. But in Portena, the oldest city in the world, she faces something that challenges everything she knows about spirits: apparitions of the dead appearing and vanishing across the city, leaving terror in their wake.With her loyal bodyguard Gerrard at her side, Zerafine uncovers a web of noble families concealing dark secrets, a high priestess hiding her own fears behind pride and protocol, and a powerful priest whose "banishments" may be doing more harm than good. As the crisis deepens and the city's very foundation seems to tremble, Zerafine must find the truth – or watch countless souls be denied the peace they deserve.This 10th Anniversary edition includes two bonus short stories, some unpublished material, and an updated Pantheon of the Gods of the Known World.
