Or find me on Instagram @gwydionroyce!metanoia (noun): a transformative change of heart; changing one’s mindI stalked the worlds of both mortals and Strangers as a weapon of brutal efficiency… until my conscience got in the way. When I signed on to become part of the High Council’s elite force of mercenaries, I expected glory and fortune. I became a living legend, my name feared throughout the Strangefells. But when a routine job took an unexpected turn, my world was upended. The walls I’d built around that little bit of soul I had left came crashing down and I fell. Hard. I ran, broken, hiding in a sleepy town and hoping my past would leave me for dead. But someone betrayed me. Now the leader of the most savage vampire syndicate in the Strangefells is sighting me in her crosshairs. I have no choice but to allow old habits to take over if there’s any chance of surviving what my enemies have in store. Something that could destroy the world as we know it.As the dangers rise and I rebuild bridges from the ashes I left behind, I start to realize that I’ve changed in ways I never saw coming. But can a mercenary eager for redemption hope for victory? Or is death the only thing waiting for me?Written and performed by Gwydion RoyceSound design by Gwydion RoyceCover art by Damonza.comCourtesy of www.epidemicsound.com:Def Lev/Olympus MonsIron-Forge Crossroads: Metanoia Copyright ©️2024 Gwydion Royce.
