Gravity of Obedience

No one serves a god without paying the cost.

When his father disappears on a religious pilgrimage, Prince Thane is chosen to ascend a sacred mountain in a desperate attempt to find him, plunging him into a world of spiritual upheaval, divine conspiracies, and the terrifying prospect of a holy war.

There, he uncovers a harrowing warning: their god's protection from a sorceress hinges on unthinkable blood sacrifices, with Thane himself poised to be a primary offering. Bound by obedience and the terrifying demands of his god and family, Thane embarks on a journey that will challenge the very foundation of his faith and crown.

Racing against time, Thane must navigate the tumultuous world of royal politics and family conflicts to keep his homeland safe. Torn between his love for Cereene, his loyalty to his people, and the moral implications of their religion, Thane stands on the precipice of a decision that could shatter his world forever.

Everything changes when an invincible knight in crimson armor approaches, promising to tip the scales in a way Thane could have never imagined. Layers of deception unravel, and revelations emerge as a conflict extending beyond the realms of their island surfaces. With an eerie understanding of Thane's inner turmoil and an irresistible offer that reveals the true price of devotion, the knight makes it unclear who is really friend or foe. Thane’s world spirals further into chaos as sacrifices become blurred and the signs of the long-anticipated war between gods grow louder.

Swept into the grandeur of royal weddings, hidden magic, and nefarious plots, the line between loyalty and disobedience blurs. The sacrifices demanded of him become unbearable, pushing Thane to question the very core of his beliefs, and bringing him face to face with an all-consuming choice. Will Thane obey the god who has orchestrated his life, or rebel against the gravity of obedience that will change the destiny of his people?

Prince Thane and Princess Lydia may be the only way of stopping the oncoming threat of the sorceress, but their marriage alone won’t solve any of their problems.

Gravity of Obedience is the thrilling sequel to the Wedding of the Torn Rose.
