They thought they'd escaped the nightmare. They were wrong.

After enduring the horrors of a realm beyond comprehension, Iona and her allies return transformed—hardened, determined, and ready to reclaim control of their lives. But nothing in the Obelisk comes without a cost, and their bid for freedom only reveals deeper layers of deception.

Their only hope lies hidden in the highest levels of the Obelisk. But gods aren't so easily slain—and neither are the ambitions of those who serve them.

What begins as a daring final stand spirals into disaster when they unknowingly deliver Sekhmet exactly what she needs. With an army of corrupted mages at her back and a clear path to Invictus, the goddess barely spares a glance at those who defied her.

Until they give her a reason to.

Bloodlust is a heart-pounding tale of betrayal, sacrifice, and magical defiance—the explosive climax of a war not just for survival, but for the very soul of the Hundred Halls. Because in the end, true victory demands more than power.

It demands everything.
