The Gods told her she was their sword. They lied. Dessy was born the Saintess of the Solaris Family, the "First Sun" destined to protect the world from the darkness. But on her sixth birthday, the very Gods she served slaughtered her lineage, sealed her memories, and sold her into the brutal pits of the Demon Realm. For ten years, she was a nameless slave, trained as a "Daughter of Ruin" to do one thing: Kill the last surviving enemy of the Heavens the Dragon King. [The Conflict] The mission was simple: Infiltrate the Obsidian Spire during the Dragon King's vulnerable 10,000-year rebirth and take his heart. But when Dessy breaks into the inner sanctum, she doesn't find a monster. She finds Malphas a primordial being whose family was murdered by the same Gods who destroyed hers. In a moment of defiance that ripples across the dimensions, Dessy chooses not to strike his heart, but to shatter his cocoon and wake the beast. [The Stakes] Now, the "Chosen One" and the "Final Boss" are forced into a blood-pact. To reclaim her memories and her stolen divinity, Dessy must unseal the Eight Gates of the Abyss ancient powers hidden within her own body that the Gods feared so much they had to bury them in gold. As she navigates the treacherous politics of the Dragon King’s Palace and the jealousy of her former "sisters," Dessy realizes the truth: She was never meant to be a Saintess. She was meant to be the Eclipse that would swallow the Heavens whole.
