In a world abandoned by its gods, revenge is the only faith left.
Before Raelik is even born, the world that will shape him is already breaking.
When Raelik awakens to the ashes of his village, he carries nothing but a broken past and a name whispered in blood. The Empire calls it order. The Oracles call it destiny. The demons call it inevitable.
But the world is older than empires.
Beneath the continents, something sleeps — vast, ancient, and forgotten. The Colossi are not myths. They are foundations.
Trained by a hermit sage whose motives are unclear, haunted by Chrona — a being who freezes time and calls him “little brother” — and armed with Alignak, a weapon forged before the fall of the Primordial Gods, Raelik steps into a conflict far greater than vengeance.
Assassins marked by death cannot kill each other.A theocracy is losing its grip on power.An empire built on conquest begins to fracture.And somewhere in the shadows… the White Terror waits.
In a world where gods are indifferent and power always demands sacrifice, the question is not who will survive.
It is what the world truly rests upon.
The Colossus War is a dark epic fantasy about revenge, sacrifice, fallen divinities, and the slow, brutal cost of becoming something more than human.
