Ares' Story

Mother knows she is dying. Her children of the soil are destroying everything. Oil ripped from her belly. Plastic choking her seas. The children of the wild hunted to destruction. She needs to find a warrior who will help battle for her survival. She turns to the ancient children of the heavens. Drake York is fading. He knows it and if he is honest with himself, he welcomes it. The time he has left in the world was to be spent in obscurity; studying, writing all he remembers from his long existence. Until he arrives in Annwn. This small university town holds a secret and it called him across the water. Finbarr Wiseman is alone, isolated by the Ajax, who says he loves him. A man who controls his every thought and action. Fin is lonely, scared and exhausted. When Drake arrives at the university Fin's world goes from grey to technicolour and nothing will ever be the same for either of them. Together, with a young sorceress, a professor who used to guard the gates of Hades, and more luck than they deserve, Drake and Fin fight to save Annwn's grove and each other. Trigger Warning: There are a few things that might disturb people sensitive to domestic violence but it's not graphic and the body count is very low.
