Alchemised

Once a talented alchemist, Helena Marino finds herself ensnared—both by war and her own conflicted psyche. Her comrades from the Resistance have met a savage end, her powers are curtailed, and the familiar world lies in ruins. Following a protracted conflict, Paladia is now controlled by a corrupt elite of influential guild families and depraved necromancers, who secured their rule with the help of their grotesque undead minions. These rulers keep Helena imprisoned. Official Resistance documents portray her as an inconsequential healer within their faction. Yet, Helena mysteriously cannot recall the months preceding her capture, sparking her captors' curiosity: Is she as trivial as she seems, or do her missing memories conceal a crucial piece of the Resistance’s final strategy? Sent to confront the High Reeve, a formidable and merciless necromancer in this altered world, she is confined to his decaying domain. Here, her battle to reclaim her fragmented past and to safeguard the remnants of her identity just begins. For within her detainment lay hidden truths—truths she must unearth, irrespective of the cost.
