The Phoenix: Invoked
​​Naera is a world under Human occupation, its native people fighting a war that must be won quickly—lest it not be won at all. After decades of bloodshed, liberation for the Ahresh is finally within reach, and the closer it comes, the less room there is for hesitation.
​
The final campaign to seize the occupied capital of Hoté demands unflinching momentum and unwavering unity at the warfront even as civilian lives are reduced to acceptable losses, dissent is reclassified as sabotage, and anything that complicates the optics of victory is erased from the narrative.
​
At the heart of the war effort, an Ahresh commander forged by hardship and a human doctor embedded on his crew as a gesture of reconciliation are forced into uneasy proximity aboard the warship driving the assault. One is tasked with keeping the war machine moving; the other refuses to forget who is being crushed beneath its momentum.
​
As the pressure mounts, fractures begin to spread through the resistance itself. Long-suppressed disagreements boil over into open conflict, and the lines between liberation, retaliation, and domination begin to blue. The closer victory comes, the more the war tests what its leaders are willing to lose—and who they are willing to sacrifice.

Beyond the Ninth
Istovan Oliir has drowned once already. The Sea took him, remade him, and spat him back into the world marked and bound to its will. Now, desperate to use this second chance to free himself of his infernal bloodline once and for all, he sails in search of the mythical Ninth Current—a passage rumored to lead beyond the reach of gods and devils alike.
​
Annette, a runaway Seer hunted by the king's guard, never intended to tangle herself up with the likes of pirates and sailors. Yet, a pendant she swipes binds her life to Istovan's, dragging her aboard his ship and into a voyage that may just set her free from the visions that plague her.
​
What begins as a debt turns into something much more dangerous: a slow, inexorable pull between captor and captive, between dreamer and devil. With freedom on the line, they both must decide what they are willing to sacrifice to attain it.
