The Raven Thief

Born of the wastelands, Spheris Arnadel, a young skilled thief, finds himself subject to a twist of fate when he steals a powerful relic and becomes a Bearer — humans gifted with powers from the Gods. As a punishment for his theft, he is cast into an otherworldly realm alongside other Bearers, where he faces off against monstrous beasts and powerful enemies. Yet, in his determination to return to the Continent and save his dying mother, Spheris is hell-bent on surviving the abyssal world. Even if it means giving his body to the Dark God whose powers he had stolen... even if it means losing all of his humanity.

• A Discordant Combination

The journey continued for hours later, but the heat did not subside even at the slightest.

Treading the plains, the party tried to keep as much space from each other, seeking to allow for as much air as possible to circulate between them. But it wasn't making much of a difference.

It couldn't be more stressed how much Spheris hated the sun, especially when it was this hot. He'd spent his entire childhood suffering from its rays back when he lived in the Heaths.

And ever since he left that place for the towns, he'd always done his best to avoid the sun. Not only did it cause for miserable weather, it reminded him about difficult moments in the past. He truly despised the shit.

The longer the trio traveled, the more accustomed to each other they were getting. In time, Linne slowly became a welcomed partner not just an inconvenience as they had earlier considered her to be.
