Fallen Lands

Moving to Monterey Bay for college was supposed to be a fresh start. Instead, a young woman finds herself trapped in a ritual chamber, an iron collar around her neck and strange system messages flooding her vision — pulled into a ruined world of monsters, magic, and chaos. Her will to survive kicks in fast. Running from demons, dodging danger at every turn, armed with just a smidge of newfound magic, she must navigate a world of ruined cities and ancient secrets. Trust is hard to come by when everyone is a stranger — but she is determined to unravel the mystery of her abduction and find a way home.

After narrowly escaping the sacrificial altar, Evelyn finds herself trapped in a labyrinth of tunnels deep underground. Lost, injured, and separated from her friends, she begins a new journey that will drag her into a conflict she hadn't known existed and force her to uncover hidden history. Choosing a path forward is clouded by trauma, heartbreak over a friend's death, and a desire for revenge. Her injuries in both body and soul force her to stay in her natural fox form while she heals — and making allies becomes a new challenge when you can't speak.

With the last known bastion of The Fallen in ruins and the remaining Greater Devils isolated from civilization by thousands of miles and a monster-filled ocean, Evelyn and her crew set their course for Vigilance, hoping for rest and a chance to build a new life. But this victory has not come without a price. The memories of those she was forced to kill and the devastation she left behind weigh heavily on Evelyn's heart, casting a shadow over her every step. As she settles into her new role in society, navigating the complexities of studying, politics, and intrigue, the world begins to tip into chaos. Nations race against each other to reclaim the Fallen Lands, monsters surge back into the continent, and political tensions soar, forcing everyone to adapt to the new norms.Evelyn isn't the only one caught up in these changes. The shockwaves of Aethabe's rage ripple across the continent, and as storms churn out of the shallow sea, the floodwaters filling Kingsgrove have an unexpected effect on a forgotten soul left behind.
