Chiaroscuro Volume 2

For a thousand years, Esteria has feared the night. When the bells toll, every soul must sleep before darkness falls, for the night does not merely hide monsters. It belongs to them.

Princess Lanasia has spent her life preparing to become the prophesied Sun of the Empire, destined to prevent the coming Eclipse. There is only one problem: the goddess has never answered her prayers, and her divine power refuses to awaken.

Then an ancient relic shatters, a phoenix rises, and Lanasia is unexpectedly crowned. Soon after, a mysterious melody leads her beyond the forbidden halls into a hidden world where night still lives, monsters dance beneath the stars, and a crimson-eyed boy cursed by darkness awaits her.

One blessed by the Sun. One cursed by the Night. Neither can save the world alone.

A sweeping romantic fantasy of forbidden worlds, ancient prophecy, monsters, and the dangerous truth hidden between light and darkness.
