The war is breaking the world, but it's breaking Esme faster.

Everything the Order thought they knew has shattered, but the return of an old ally could be key to ending the war. Unfortunately, just as the Order finally gains ground, rebellion strikes. Traitors emerge. Those still fighting beside the king and alterni discover that malevolenci outmaneuver their forces at every turn. If the Order doesn't strike a decisive blow soon, all their advantages will be wasted.

For Esme, the return of their greatest ally has rewritten everything she believed about who she is—shaking her identity, her place in the Order...and even her bond with Owen. As the pressure to prove herself closes in, even Owen's faith feels fragile. Does he need her beside him anymore? Does he even want her?

Despite strains on their partnership, Esme and Owen must take the fight to the heart of the malevolenci world—a hellscape where demons are born and every step closer to victory is a step deeper into danger. This final charge will force them to face invincible, merciless enemies... But the greatest danger is one they never see coming.

Origini is Book 3 of The Alt-World Chronicles and the final part in The Sanctuary War Trilogy, where magic, betrayal, and ancient secrets decide whether reality itself will survive.
