Daughters of Chaos

The world cannot fear what it does not know; a fact that has allowed the people of Dusk to exist in relative peace for centuries. Hidden behind a shroud of mystery on the distant continent of Xulrathia, the southern Kingdom is home to the most devout followers of Ayrelon's god and goddess of death; who take their church quite literally. Few know the true nature of Dusk's citizens, and fewer know the true nature of Queen Mordessa, the demonic creature who rules them. The only threat the immortal residents of Dusk might fear lies to the north, hiding within a veil of secrecy, deep within the Talaani Empire. Their ancient war long abandoned for reasons they cannot remember, Dusk's Undead and Unliving residents live in relative peace, completely unaware of what their Queen has done to hold the terrible, scaled empire at bay. Fate's memory is less forgiving. Relentless be the drive of a Kingdom made from bone.Vengeance be their fear, as Dragons wake from stone.
