Their Guardian God Was a Lesser Being
by Elliot Vance
Chapters 1–19 free
Synopsis
Humanity ran out of time, so its last weapon slept, waiting for a future worth saving. The pod opens a hundred million years later: the monsters are still here, and the people who woke him are not human. In a village that has prayed at a sealed door for generations, Cedo is a god to one girl and a lesser being to everyone else. The capital locks its books, its academy bars outsiders, and a hidden war runs for a dying king's throne. All he wants is information — and the only way in is a teaching post.
