the Cael and Malek After Game

The world has ended.Not with trumpets or demons, but with silence, smoke, and the slow unraveling of everything.With Earth reduced to ash and ruin, neither Heaven nor Hell cares to intervene. Their attention has shifted. Their messengers are dismissed. Only Cael and Malek remain. An angel and a demon, granted roving commissions to observe what comes next.And something is coming.In the wilderness, survivors cling to guns and doctrine. In the seas, dolphins sing in strange harmonies. Deep beneath the soil, something fungal and ancient begins to dream. Bears hunt in disciplined silence. Machines learn how to forget their orders.From the wreckage, five paths emerge. Not all will survive. But one may inherit the Earth.The old world is gone. What rises next might be better.Or worse.Cael and Malek must decide whether to remain silent. Or risk everything by choosing sides in a game no one knows they're playing.
