Cathedrals of Hollow Light: A Dark Romantasy of Bone, Oath, and Ruin

By Darrell Sheppeard

The sun did not rise. It split.
After the scandal in the Solar Archives, Queen Vaelira Morvane and paladin Ser Caldris Vale are bound by a mark that hums between them-BONE, SUN, BOND-an accusation written in living ink. The Dawnsworn call it heresy. The Ossian Dominion calls it omen. And the Radiant Remains demands their return to the sealed Sun Vault... or it will erase them from each other's memory entirely.
As border wars reignite and holy crusade whispers through cathedral halls, Vaelira must reclaim territory before her fractured kingdom collapses. But every spell costs her memory. Every victory costs her name. And every time Caldris draws divine Light, his lifespan thins like ash.
He was sworn to destroy her kind.
Now he burns for her.
In a world where resurrection demands flesh and faith demands obedience, their bond threatens to expose a lie that could unravel empires. But love-especially the kind forged in shadow-has never been gentle.
And the sun is not finished opening.
