Embers of Eternity Some secrets refuse to stay buried. When Professor Leila Dusk cracks open a silent tomb in Valterra, she doesn’t just unearth an artifact—she awakens a legacy. The Codex of Meridian surges to life in her hands, flooding her mind with forbidden knowledge: she is the last heir of an empire so powerful it ripped open the fabric of time itself. Now the world is unraveling. Energy rifts flicker across the sky. Time fractures in dangerous pulses. Hunted by the merciless Sovereign Collective—and by Darius Vane, the lover who betrayed her—Leila must master her newfound powers before the Rift consumes them all. But every secret the Codex reveals comes with a price: trust is a weapon, and betrayal is the only certainty. High-octane, heart-pounding, and dripping with cosmic mystery, Embers of Eternity will drag you into its depths and refuse to let go. Will Leila save her world—or condemn it forever?
