With such a relic in hand, Raffaele is sure to become the High Priest. However, unbeknownst to him, a powerful dark mage has been searching for the Lost Godstone for untold years. As both he and the dark mage grow close to the relic, it becomes a race, not to become High Priest, but to keep the relic from the hands of evil.A high-fantasy action adventure rife with twists and turns!

Demon-Killing Sword

A century ago, the demon king drowned the world in miasma. Demons everywhere went mad. Peaceful shopkeepers tore apart their human patrons. Child demons devoured their human friends. No longer could demons speak. They had become mad beasts intent upon killing. With no other recourse, humankind retreated behind a wall and sent forth their strongest heroes, wielding the demon-killing sword. It was hoped that this sword could even slay the demon king, source of the miasma. All was in vain. The heroes failed. The sword was lost. And so a hundred years pass, until a scrappy part-demon scavenger finds the ruins of the sword. With rabid demons beating at the walls, she sets out across the wasteland of a once-vibrant land to defeat the demon king and carve a new fate for all of humanity.Part Journey to the West/Saiyuki, part Volsunga saga/Nibelungenlied. Updates at least weekly, more depending on production speed.Lovely cover by @witchoria!…
