She gave everything to save a world that was never hers. Now she must save it from her own people.

Earth is gone. What remains of humanity drifts through space aboard aging starships, desperate, divided, and growing increasingly ruthless. Shandiin has returned to them-stripped of her magic, mourning the love she left behind, and no longer sure where she belongs.

But the planet she sacrificed a thousand years to protect is no longer safe. The Earthers have found Hiraeth. And they intend to claim it.

Haunted by prophecy, grief, and divided loyalties, Shandiin must navigate suspicion, betrayal, and rising tensions between worlds. She may no longer be a goddess, but only she understands what's truly at stake.

To stop what's coming, she must face what remains of her past: her power, her people, and her heart. The next war won't be between gods, but between survivors.

And this time, she must choose which world she truly belongs to-and who she's willing to sacrifice to save it.
