Under the Wings of Shadowlight

When prophecy bleeds into destiny, no one walks away unscathed. In a world where light and shadow wage an endless war, Eira has always carried a power that was never meant to be tamed. The shadowlight burns in her veins-mysterious, volatile, and alive. Neither wholly dark nor wholly light, it marks her as something in between: feared by some, hunted by others, and cursed by prophecy itself. Her mission should be simple-retrieve Rhys, a zealot long thought dead, once a devoted servant of the Shadowborn and now nothing more than a chained prisoner in a city of ruins. Yet nothing about fate is ever simple. When she unbinds him, the course of history shifts. Ancient shrines stir. Forgotten gods awaken. And the prophecy that has haunted kingdoms for centuries begins to carve its truths into flesh and bone. Rhys knows the cost of defying destiny. Betrayed by his people, left to rot in silence, he has seen the darkest face of prophecy and survived only by surrendering pieces of his soul. Now unchained, he carries knowledge carved into his very body-secrets of a war that stretches beyond kingdoms and into the fabric of existence itself. But knowledge has its own hunger. And when combined with Eira's volatile shadowlight, it threatens to unravel them both. Together, Eira and Rhys must navigate cities swallowed by mist, temples haunted by the remnants of old wars, and forests where the trees themselves remember the taste of blood. Every step binds them tighter to the prophecy's cruel design, even as mistrust gnaws at the fragile bond between them. Allies see them as dangerous. Enemies see them as inevitable. And both are right. Because prophecy does not care about heroes. It does not care about villains. It does not care about kingdoms, crowns, or wars won with steel. Prophecy only cares about the sacrifice it demands-and about what remains when the choice between survival and destruction is made. As the threads of fate tighten and ancient forces stir, one truth becomes undeniable: not everyone will leave this journey alive. By the end, one of them will fall. And the world will never be the same. Under the Wings of Shadowlight is the breathtaking third installment of Destinies Entwined in Shadows, the dark epic fantasy saga by Everett Vale.
