The Tropes:

The Story:

Five ordeals to prove their worth.
Power that may end them all.

Revenge must be served, but the Organ Mandor, sovereign Ruler of the four-petal island of Thyria, holds more power than any other panom. Hope is determined to avenge the death of countless innocents at his wicked hands. A blood hunt has been promised, and she will not stop until his blood stains her blades.

To stand a chance against the most powerful being, a group of five strivers will embark on the Fifth Crusade to obtain the mythical Fifth Power—unclaimed for centuries. The Cardinal goddesses will push the lives of these five aspirants to their limits, demanding mastery of the panom powers: Taking, Giving, Healing and Harming.

Once an ordeal begins, only two outcomes exist: succeed, or die.

When Hope joined the Fifth Crusade, she accepted that her life would be at risk, but nothing could have prepared her to risk her beliefs and her deep, forbidden feelings.
