The Mountain of Souls

As the Delnorian Empire is consumed by the flames of war, a mysterious sect harbours an unbelievable secret: an ancient prophecy foretelling the return of The Once and Future King, a legendary figure who will usher in humankind’s golden age, ending inequality and conflict. Amidst the chaos, Malina, a young woman, is unwittingly thrust into the heart of destiny when she's sold at auction to a shadowy figure. Her destination is not the expected army or brothel but the Mountain of Souls – a mystical, foreboding place where her future becomes irrevocably entwined with the prophecy. For if she can survive the ruthless training process that awaits, she’ll attain powers beyond that of mere mortals and become one of The Chosen, a fearsome group assigned to overcome the malevolent forces standing in the way of the king’s ascension. Failure means certain death, and even success will come at a terrible cost: a conscience stained by blood, deceit, betrayal and the sacrifice of her very soul. But is it a price she’s willing to pay?
