Without Rest

A tale of love and madness.

 

When he confronts the Truth, a lovesick god has all of his dreams turned into nightmares.
 

In a moment of passion, a lovesick god willingly fails and breaks the divine law.  Desperate to nourish and cultivate his renegade love, he searches for the answers to the questions on his heart.  Told that he must go to the darkest place in all creation, and that only there will he gain what he needs in order to succeed, he does not hesitate in beginning his dread adventure.  When he later finds himself in such a place, he does indeed achieve the means to win his love forever…although he did not fully understand the cost. 

 

In the mortal realm, an unlikely group of would-be heroes find themselves hunted by powers they cannot possibly hope to overcome.  Captured and taken to a place where sanity is a commodity, they keep their spirits high by helping those around them as they look for a missing companion.  While they are searching, they discover—much to their surprise—that they are in the middle of a secret fight amongst the gods.  

In the end, love is both triumphant and forsaken in this charming, yet mordant tale of gods and heroes.
