Mora After Dark

Mora is secretly celebrating her innate powers finally manifesting, but obscuring her own identity as a Goddess of Death was never going to be enough to secure her future as the next matriarch. Mora discovers that her own mother plans to barter her birthright for a business alliance, or barter her soul to the God of the Underworld if she attempts to rebel. Mora's rebellion, however, might be necessary to save her country.  Veles would like to believe that accepting a contract for the soul of a goddess is better than allowing someone with worse intentions to do so.
Many would believe that he, the God of the Underworld, would have the worst intentions of all, but it's the contractual loophole which lures him the most. He's waited a century to make his move, and might get more than he bargained for in the process.
