The fabric of the universe hangs in the balance. Can you ever kill the divine?In the shocking aftermath of the battle in Solara, the heirs arrive at a chilling conclusion: They must return to their respective worlds, find the fulcrum of each god, and destroy them alongside the gods' bodies. The paths taken will be dire and will require the heirs to call upon the unknown - and unstable - depths of their power. Meanwhile, the long-dead fifth god, Orsus, seeks to return to full strength - their motives as yet unclear. The only certainty is that in order to end the gods for good, the heirs will have to journey to the cradle of creation - the Meridian Forge - where they will face their strongest demons yet. The seven heirs must come together one last time to save their realms, and those they hold dear, in the breathtaking conclusion to the Dark Gods Saga.
