The story follows Seris, a former guardian of a ruined city, now stripped of her title, her memories, and her purpose. The Bleeding has altered her body, her mind, and her very soul. She is haunted by visions of a place she once called home—a place she can't remember but feels deeply connected to. All she knows is that a dark force, an unnamed god of the Hollow, is slowly consuming the remnants of Ashwael, and she is somehow tied to its undoing.
