Veil of the Night

The Constantine Empire called it victory. The Azu Tribe called it extinction. After the brutal purge of an ancient tribe hidden deep within Chandra Forest, renowned captain Ezekiel Martell returns bearing an unusual spoil of war — a mysterious woman worshipped by the Azu as *Hivatya*, a title reserved only for beings believed to stand above mankind itself. Beautiful, silent, and frighteningly unreadable, she should have been nothing more than another prisoner bound for slavery. Yet the deeper Ezekiel digs into her existence, the more the Empire’s history begins to unravel beneath his feet. For the Azu were older than the Empire. Older than the throne. And some things buried by history were never meant to be found again. As whispers of ancient gods, forgotten civilizations, and blood-soaked conspiracies emerge from the shadows, Ezekiel, a war hero forged by conquest, finds himself standing at the center of something far more dangerous than war itself. Because empires can destroy kingdoms. But they cannot kill what came before them.
