The Shadow of the Scholar

Description

Shrouded in anonymity, Saiyah’s existence remained hidden, nurtured in the shadows since her demonic mother abandoned her on Daniel’s godforsaken doorstep. But on the precipice of her 18th birthday, an ominous choice looms before her—embrace the concealment of her half-demon heritage or unmask herself in a realm suffused with dread and suspicion. Leaving the sanctuary of her godfather’s abode, Saiyah embarks on a quest for the enigmatic truths lurking within her cryptic lineage, only to be thrust into a realm where gods and demons collide in a bewildering dance. A mystifying half-demon academy beckons, its secrets whispering in forbidden tongues, while an unlikely savior emerges—the demon-slaying deity, Captain Hezekiah. In a world still trembling from the echoes of ancient battles, trust hangs by a fragile thread. Will Saiyah navigate the treacherous labyrinth of deception and uncertainty, unearthing the identities of friend and foe alike? The mists of uncertainty cloak her path, for in this ethereal realm, truth and betrayal intertwine, demanding her unwavering discernment.
