The people of Elesta believe daemons are a blessing; the people of Rimmor think they’re a curse. Elestans absorb the nature spirits, gaining a mental companion and extra-human abilities. Any Rimmoran with a daemon is slaughtered. The resulting tension between nations was rising; now a disease that poisons nature and daemons alike is spreading, bringing the conflict to a boiling point. Three people have their own agendas, but the resulting paths could lead their respective kingdoms to victory or defeat.
Khyro, a retired warrior-priest, seeks justice for the innocent caught in the Rimmoran king’s crusade.
Czaela, a young woman with strange origins, seeks answers to the mysterious daemon which shares her body.
Allai, one of the king’s Daemon Hunters, seeks a cure for his sister and others possessed by the daemon ‘parasites’.
The threads of their fate tangle, twist, and turn in a journey of duty, deliverance, devotion, and belief in Daemon Mark—the first of a trilogy.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Khyro lost everything-his wife and daughter to bandits and his faith to vengeance. Living with the guilt of vindictively taking ten sacrilegious daemons into his body, the nature spirits now sharing his consciousness guide him back to his old temple only to find it under attack. As the lone survivor of the massacre, Khyro adopts the last remaining soul-a baby marked with a daemon he's never seen before.Twenty years later, Caela can't take much more of the unknown. While other practitioners hear the voices of their daemons, Caela's is silent, and its image marked on her skin gives no clues as to its origin. After years of hiding this shame, she finds a lead when a sickness spreads across the land-a sickness she and her daemon can heal.Allai, a daemon hunter from the neighboring kingdom, has dedicated his life to eradicating the daemons he believes possess the innocent. Hunting his own lost, possessed sister, he vows to discover a way to heal her or be the one to end her misery. His mission leads him to Czaela, now targeted by his king for her 'demonic' abilities. They form an unexpected connection through which he gains a new perspective on daemons, and when it is discovered that the king himself has a corrupt daemon within him, Allai's loyalties are tested.The conflict against the king comes to a peak, and willing or not, Khyro, Czaela, and Allai are the game pieces that could bring their respective allies to victory or ruin.
