The Raven Thief

Born of the wastelands, Spheris Arnadel, a young skilled thief, finds himself subject to a twist of fate when he steals a powerful relic and becomes a Bearer — humans gifted with powers from the Gods. As a punishment for his theft, he is cast into an otherworldly realm alongside other Bearers, where he faces off against monstrous beasts and powerful enemies. Yet, in his determination to return to the Continent and save his dying mother, Spheris is hell-bent on surviving the abyssal world. Even if it means giving his body to the Dark God whose powers he had stolen... even if it means losing all of his humanity.

It was still dark when Spheris woke up. The air was as cool as it could be in the dubious world and there were sounds of loud insects chipping in the earth.

Another sound that Spheris could hear were grunts, like someone was fighting... or exercising. He pulled himself to his feet and looked over his left where the noise was coming from, and surely enough it was Cerene.

She was manipulating her element, forming different Influences and striking a poor, broad plant sprouting from the hill. Spheris's jaw clenched, understanding that a lot must be in the Avatar's mind.

He carefully made his way through the sleeping trio of Talon, Linne and Nero and deliberately walked towards her. He stood for a moment, watching her as she struck the plant continuously with her water blasts. Each time she hit the tree, she would maneuver the water to yet another blasting attack.

A frustrated grunt left her each time, and Spheris kept on watching this with silent worry.
