We built our walls to keep the pain outside. But walls don't know the difference between what hurts us and what heals us.
Twelve Aspects rule the universe. For five billion years, a contract has kept them apart, each bound to its own realm, each carrying the slow weight of eternity alone.
Shelin is the Aspect of Souls. A thousand years ago, he buried the one he loved: Luna, an engineer from the planet D'Nersun. A single mortal lifetime burned forever into his being, and he has not been the same since. He still returns to a dead rock in deep space to watch a pulsar that reminds him of her. He still searches, against all odds, for a soul he cannot find. But his mourning is interrupted when Zara, the Aspect of Fear and his mate from eons ago, calls him for help with a rift in her realm that will not stay closed.
As old wounds reopen and old alliances shift, Shelin is drawn into a crisis that will force him to confront not just an unknown enemy, but his siblings, his grief, and the question that has haunted him for a thousand years: what is left of us when everything we love must end?
Layers of Hope and Pain is the second book in The Forgotten Aspects series, a mythic cosmic fantasy of bickering immortals, ancient grief, and a love that pulls them back together no matter how far they drift.
