Arrow of Entropy

The Malora Octet #8

by Courtney M. Privett

Zella Thula is a light mage, but her severe social anxiety keeps her cloaked in shadow. As a daughter of the phoenix, she was always expected to become an Emergent student of the immortal Time Child, Bethel Masiona, once she reached adulthood. Her dreams are shattered when Bethel rejects her, but she finds new hope under the guidance of Rassa, a Time Child with a dark and nightmarish past.

As Zella comes to terms with her strengths and limitations, a change is overtaking the universe. The entire cosmos trembles as stars are ripped from the sky and replaced by darkness. The ancient warning of the Elements is coming to fruition - when Oblivion wakes, the universe will know.

Arrow of Entropy concludes both the Emergence Trilogy and the Malora Octet.
