" How about we help each other?" He says and I look up at him, eyes still wet from the tears streaming down my cheeks, heart freshly broken from the public humiliation and betrayal that was Lucas's breakup. I can faintly make out the first droppings of snow floating magically under the light of the street lamps. It's that time of the year, a time for wool coats, a time for relaxing, none of which I'll be doing. "I'm an orphan with a wicked aunt and a boyfriend who left her because she has nothing to her name, how could I possibly help you?" I say another sob escaping my lips.

"I need a wife, you need a home, marry me and you'll have all you want". I nod.

Kairo: The One Who Watched Heaven Burn Genre: Dark Fantasy / Mythic Revenge / Seinen / Magic Tone: Brutal, tragic, mythological, with heavy emotional weight Kairo is the last blood of Zahrathos, progenitor of immortality—sworn for ages to carry out the will of heaven. When the First War erupts, the Old Gods are betrayed by their former disciples, the New Gods, who ascend by devouring their masters’ divinity. Kairo fights for the Old Gods and becomes the last obstacle to the usurpers’ throne. At the war’s end, the New Gods fear the undying heir of Zahrathos. They tear the Aion-Sigil (the brand of immortal lineage) from his soul and sear him with the Lethe Brand, a heavenfire seal that burns away his memories while leaving his immortality intact—cold, automatic, and stripped of feeling. Cast from the broken gates, he falls from the sky like a cinder and wakes in the mortal realm knowing only his name and a single image: heaven burning. Now in fragments he will fight the gods to avenge Zahrathos
