Ephemeral Tomorrows Brian C Kershner

As two realities collide, shocking revelations about the nature of the generations-long war between the Light and the Shadow have caused the lines between good and evil to blur to an almost indistinguishable gray. In the Light reality, the desperate band of heroes led by Nathaniel Sandar and Wolf Ranthall race against time to unravel both the mysteries of the war and the puppet-master's strings that hold them together, all the time hunted by the unrelenting and blood-thirsty children of the nightmare of humanity, Shau-ling. In the Dark Mirror reality, the unthinkable reigns as normality. Logan Ranthall, the Dragon, the hero of the second generation of the prophecies, has been reborn as the Lord Phoenix and has seen the fallacy of his crusade first-hand. Betrayed by the very ideal that shaped his suffering, Logan fights no longer for the Light or the Shadow but for the fate of humanity. Caught between worlds and between factions, Aerith Seth continues his personal quest for the truth of his own existence. However, as questions are slowly answered, more come into focus. Time grows shorter for the two fractured worlds and the mandate of the Creator propels both the Light and the Shadow spiraling toward extinction. Will either the Light or the Shadow rise to be victorious and save both from fire? Will there even be a future left to save once all truths are revealed? Witness what very well may be the final hours of the world of Onea in The Quietus of Fate: Ephemeral Tomorrows.
