The Redemption of the Blood Tear Sarah Margaret Matti

Publisher Marketing: Shayna is merely a simple human woman from Earth who finds herself reborn on a world torn between the kingdoms of humanity and the fierce, blood-lusty Nag Seitch Empire. Aahz, the Emperor, haunts the steps of a thief who has stolen something holy to his people, the Blood Tear. Shayna has no choice but to ride with the thief through the wilderness to find a new life on this world, Stetali, which the Folk of the Circle prophecy with dark foreboding. Aahz must offer the thief a chance at Redemption every night, shadowing his every move, from dusk until dawn. He and Shayna are thrown together into circumstances neither could have ever imagined. Shayna discovers she has impossible powers, legendary only until now, being able to sense the infinite Harmonies that underlie everything, the powers of creation themselves. And yet she has no ability to use them at all. Aahz has dark secrets. Yet Shayna finds herself telling him the wonders of Earth, passionately giving his Empire secrets that could far advance the Nag Seitch over humanity, and yet Shayna is compelled by a deep need and calling for something much greater than herself, humanity or the Empire itself. Far beyond love and desire for each other, the two enter onto a path that will change the world forever.
