They say blood is thicker than water, but what if it's also denser than chains?
Leonidas has passed the test the spirit left for him and broken free of Violet Waters. Now, he must face the greater world of Maladoneae. But before he can, the secrets of his mother's life begin to slowly make themselves known.
Why had she come to Violet Waters? What was her goal before her life was derailed after his birth? What does the blood running through her veins represent, and what burden has it passed on to him?
While Leonidas faces the world to answer these questions, God Atticus of Swallowing Tusk hasn't taken too kindly to the loss of His Sub-Shrine and His stance has turned the previously favorable Goddess Yves' heart cold toward Leondias.
Facing the schemes of mortals on one side and the ire of Gods on another, Leonidas steps into a world he will either flourish in or be crushed beneath weight of.
