Man of Peace
Omtale
From Darkness Comes Peace... Raised in the caves of his father's people-the brutal and warlike Oni-a half-breed boy knows only a world of darkness and pain. Life here offers one cruel lesson: fight or die. But he dreams of a world of light and beauty, the world of his human mother, an Oni slave. His only solace, she implores him not to give in to the hate and evil of the Oni, to reject their Dark God, Grund. "Be at peace," she advises, and from this, he gleans both hope and a name. As his mother wished, Peace escapes the caves, but he encounters a world of humans that he doesn't understand. A token from his mother earns him a place at the Sky Temple of Eos the Maker, where his mother trained in her youth. Here, he, too, can become a warrior for the Gods of Light. Struggling against his upbringing, he earns a home, a family. But the Dark Gods have dark plans, and they have planted their seeds within the promising young disciples of the Sky Temples. To thwart them, Peace must return to the Oni, submit to the machinations of a centuries-old creature, and offer himself to Grund. To save his world and those he loves, he must sacrifice his soul.
