The Upholder
279 Views · Ongoing · Nathan Frost
Legends are not born. They are stolen. Or unleashed.
In a world where gods are worshipped, feared, and quietly doubted, Xyra survives by her wits, her speed, and her talent for taking what doesn’t belong to her. The backstreets have taught her one rule: if you hesitate, you die.
When she steals a purse from a lone traveler, she thinks she’s finally had a stroke of luck.
She’s wrong.
The man she robs is Magnus Coleman—a sorcerer, a demon hunter, and a name spoken only in whispers. And he is searching for the Lazufeer Talismans: ancient relics forged when gods still walked the world, artifacts powerful enough to challenge divinity itself. One can bring back the dead. The other can erase existence.
There is no third option.
Drawn by greed, curiosity, and a fate she doesn’t yet understand, Xyra follows Magnus into a journey that spans cursed lands, ruined cities, and battlefields haunted by monsters and forgotten sins. They are hunted by cultists, warlords, and forces that should not exist—and with every step, the line between myth and reality begins to break.
Because some treasures are not meant to be found.
And if the Lazufeer Talismans are claimed, the world will not simply change.
It will be rewritten.
Even if the gods themselves must fall.
