This is a descent into oblivion and the hunger of the forgotten. Archivist Mara accepts a quiet contract to catalog the crumbling Dumont estate, expecting solitude and routine; instead she finds a house steeped in silence, where the walls listen and mirrors shift when no one is looking. The longer she stays, the more her reflection falters, her memories bend, and the boundary between herself and the presence within the house begins to dissolve.

Prince Jael of the Severin never meant to unlock the Crimson Gateway beneath his parents’ castle. The portals had been sealed for millennia. Only the female Fae of Caldaen were meant to wield dream-sorcery. Jael forced himself into lucidity, crossed the gateway, and emerged in a mirrored Oxford. The Severin once roamed the ten Clone-Earths for ages, until a Pagan witch and a Catholic monk worked together to seal the Crimson Gateways centuries ago. Now Jael has reopened the path for his people to feed on souls once more—and reclaim their lost immortality.
