Chosen for divinity, she must surrender everything—until she realizes what her gods truly demand.
Within the Sanctuary of the Divine Ichorous, safety is salvation—and devotion is everything.
When a young convert is chosen to become an Elect, destined for the revered rank of Apostle, it is the greatest honor she could imagine. To ascend is to transcend the suffering of the world beyond the walls. To ascend is to be closer to the Gods.
But ascension comes at a cost.
As the sacred week unfolds, her days are consumed by ritual, isolation, and growing unease. Strange sounds echo through the halls. The presence of the Apostles feels closer—too close. And Clara, her closest companion, begins to pull away, questioning the very faith that has defined their lives.
Torn between devotion and a love she cannot deny, the young Elect must confront a truth she has long buried: what if faith demands more than obedience?
What if it demands everything?
In a world where belief is survival and doubt is heresy, she must decide who she is willing to become—and what she is willing to lose.
Because some paths to enlightenment lead somewhere far darker than salvation.
