Into the Eternal: Kastagir's Return

They got Erin's soul out of the land of the dead. And for months now, Nate has been hearing a voice.For fifteen years, Kastagir called himself Nate. The amnesiac shell who woke up in a college dorm room without his memories became a real person: someone with friends, a life, a self that was not constructed but grown. He knew there was something wrong with him. He could feel it, the way you feel weather before it arrives. He did not know it had a name.The seal is breaking. The memories are flooding back. He can feel it happening and he cannot stop it, and the question he is not asking out loud is the one that matters most. When Kastagir is whole again, is there room for Nate inside him? Or was Nate only ever the shape the absence left?The demon is still out there. It has been learning. An artist nearly dies. A city holds its breath. And the man who is two people at once has to hold a line against something driving a civilization that spent centuries preparing for exactly this moment.Into the Eternal is the second book in The Guardians series: an identity crisis at the scale of deep time, a war turning dangerous in new ways, and an immortal learning all over again what he is.The Guardians Series:Book 1: Into the NevertimeBook 2: Into the EternalBook 3: Into the Darknest ( Fall 2026 )Book 4: Into the Aftermath ( Winter 2027 )The Side Stories ( Coming soon )I would like to thank and publicly acknowledge the vast amount of Story Contributions and World-Building Development over nearly 30 years by my spouse Cecil Dewalt.
