About this Event

From the flesh of a fallen god, a demon slayer rises.
Supay lives under a curse of eternal death. For the greed of their god, the people are damned to live as human... and then again as muki.
For Solana, survival means staying sharp and staying alone. Armed with only a blood-forged dagger, she's carved out a life as Supay's fiercest slayer, freeing souls even as she's trapped by duty.
But when a twist of fate offers her the title of Royal Demon Hunter, Solana finally finds a path to the freedom she's always craved... but it draws her closer to the darkness threatening Supay—darkness that calls to her soul alone.
Torn between turning her back on a fight she never asked for and the pull of loyalties old and new—including an irresistible connection to a man who should be her enemy—Solana must decide...
Choose fate and freedom?
Or death, destruction... and revolution.
