The Ash Covenant: Redemption of the Abyssal Empress[English]

The endless night of Aethermoor was once shattered by Kael alone. ​Bound by an ancient covenant, he spent three agonizing months purging every trace of Abyss Magic from Seraphine, the fallen saint. When dawn finally broke and the divine contract was fulfilled, Kael closed his eyes upon a stone bed within the Sanctuary of Holy Light, returning to the neon-drenched, mundane world he called home. ​In his modern apartment, only a single night had passed. ​But paradise is a fragile thing. When the golden mark upon Kael’s palm suddenly twisted into a visceral, crimson stain, the long-buried covenant dragged him back into the magical realm like an inescapable curse. ​At the abyss of his descent, a cold, unyielding truth crushed his consciousness: "Time never flows the same between worlds. The single night of your absence was a century of agony on the other side." ​One hundred years. ​The gentle saint who once wore white silk and offered him a faint, bittersweet smile before his departure was gone. In her place, forged by a century of desolate waiting and absolute despair, rose the Abyssal Empress—a sovereign who rules over all, born to watch the world burn. ​As the covenant burns anew, Kael realizes that the one he must now redeem is no longer a helpless girl, but a terrifying entity who has already torn the gods to shreds.
