Synopsis

In a world ravaged by centuries of tyrannical rule under the Moon Throne, a despotic emperor and his monstrous sons, the Three Terrors, wield frightful powers derived from an ancient god they hold captive. But the god's imprisonment is not eternal. With the aid of Jun, a guard burdened by a guilt-stricken past, and Keema, an outcast fighting for a brighter future, the deity escapes royal captivity. Pursued by her own triplet children, who are determined to drag her back to her unholy prison, the god embarks on a perilous five-day pilgrimage alongside her young companions. Their mission: to secure freedom and dismantle the cruel Moon Throne forever. This ambitious and profound saga offers both a sweeping adventure and an intimate exploration of identity, the weight of legacy, and the universal yearning for belonging, promising a truly unique and transformative reading experience.
