Having narrowly avoided death, hero Rakta Velbrun must now save his lands, friends, and children, in the thrilling conclusion to an emotional isekai series.
 
It’s been nearly a decade since Rakta Velbrun of Gelvurt battled the evil Zactrik. Eight long years, to be exact, during which he slept the sleep of death and those who loved and relied on him were forced to grieve, cope, and move on as best they could. Now, revived by a mysterious force, Rakta awakens to a world that is at once achingly familiar and dangerously broken.
 
While he’s been gone, Rakta’s three remarkable children—strange beings with souls from another realm—have traveled different paths, each succumbing to old pitfalls imbued with moral perils and real-life consequences. Dalton has assumed control of Tribus but rules with cold calculation; Natakia has embraced her gift for seeing but has left herself open to manipulation; and Daka has honed her skills as a warrior but fallen victim to her rage.
 
Only Rakta can bring them back from the brink of disaster. And its not only the fate of his family that hangs in the balance: an old enemy is threatening to destroy everyone and everything in the land, and only together will Rakta and his children be able to defeat him for good.
 
At once a heart-pounding adventure tale and a moving story of the healing power of love, Dusk is the brilliant and captivating conclusion to an imaginative fantasy series that explores fatherhood, friendship, and forgiveness.
 
The third volume of the hit portal fantasy series—with almost 400,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!
