War for the Universe - Sr Brown - Bog

After the last fight with the three gods ends in defeat, life once more is quiet in the temple for Val. Their days filled with their girlfriend, Ariel, and hoping to mend the broken relationship with Firtzzz. For now, no sign of the three deities that started the previous adventure as the warrior starchild does what they can to prepare for the next attack.
But things change when Inanna's consort, Dumuzid, sends word from the underworld. A message that the goddess of the dead, Ereshkigal, wants to speak with her little sister of strange deaths. Two nights in a row, groups of those many would call detestable are slaughtered. Murdered by a mysterious entity, the divine thinks Inanna might have done this, demanding answers. Anger at past actions that once kept them apart pushed aside for what they hope is the greater good.
But this is only the beginning as a shadowy force hungers for vengeance and the blood of the guilty. Darkness feasting on those it determines a lifetime in prison is not enough punishment. This mystery further complicated by a death that will shake the group and push them in ways they couldn't have predicted. A covenant sealed between two warriors to protect the lives of loved ones, and consequently, the world they hold dear. Truths revealed through suffering. Life knitted with the strings of fate on a loom of deception. A light found in others from the oddest of places. A threat to survival gifting Val with love and a chance at relationships they never imagined. And with beings they never thought they would meet during such dark times.
The sands of time they will find is forgiving and that of second chances, but the price cannot be paid easily. And in the end won't always lead to the desired results. The woven fate laid out for them one that could be torn and mended but never staying the same. Like a ripped cloth, it can be repaired, but would never look like it did before. And when the final stitch is done, you can only pray it's good enough...
