The tale of a legendarily weak and ancient race, cursed by the gods, and barely surviving against all odds. Their numbers reduced to but a handful. Even so, all hope is not yet lost. Myths passed from generation to generation, the long-desired appointed time: the appearance of the chosen.  Will they receive salvation? Or is this just another living hell? Release schedule: Tuesday/Thursday. Depends when I finish rewriting and formatting for RR. Note: After chapter 27 there is some romance and a love triangle element. They don't last long either though. This story is ONLY published on royalroad.com.
