Prime Dominance: The Oathbound Guardian, Book Two

A Standalone POV Spin-off

Genre: Science Fiction, Dystopian Fantasy, Post-Apocalyptic Adventure Recommended Age Range: 16+


The weight of an oath is nothing compared to the price of a legacy.
Following the reality-shattering events of his initiation, Dyelah’rah is no longer a mere candidate of the swamp. He has emerged from the pit as a weapon of the Sacred Grove—taller, stronger, and bonded to a legendary Gold Blade that hums with the power of ancient mana. But in a world where every gift demands a blood offering, Dyelah’rah quickly discovers that his new status is a gilded cage.
Claimed through a calculated violation by the ambitious Grove Daughter Terra-sita, Dyelah’rah is thrust into the heart of the Branch Wars. As the appointed Champion of her lineage, he must lead a band of elite warriors into the deadliest reaches of the mutated Florida wastes to secure the Grove's expansion.
Yet, the true battlefield is internal. While the Grove Mother’s distributed consciousness watches from her throne of roots, Terra’sita carries the quickened seed of Dyelah’rah’s future—a daughter born of both biology and mystical manipulation, destined for the throne.
Surrounded by rivals who view his rare power as a target and bound by a union he never chose, Dyelah’rah must navigate the treacherous line between duty and autonomy. Can he protect the delicate balance of the poisoned world, or will he become just another piece of the "ancestral fulcrum" consumed by the very legacy he was created to serve?
"The Grove has marked him. The Branches have claimed him. The world will fear him."
