In the heart of ancient Waset, Isara, a gifted scribe burdened by the shadow of her family's past, uncovers an ancient scroll hidden deep within the sacred Archives of Thoth. What begins as a scholarly curiosity soon spirals into a terrifying revelation-the scroll's hieroglyphs shift and change before her eyes, whispering secrets tied to a long-forgotten prophecy and the cursed legacy of the Obsidian Pharaoh.
Marked by cryptic glyphs that appear mysteriously on her skin, Isara finds herself at the center of a conspiracy rooted in blood, betrayal, and ancient magic. The cult of the Black Sun, masked and ruthless, hunts her relentlessly, believing she holds the key to resurrecting the Obsidian Pharaoh-a ruler cursed for his dark ambitions and sealed away centuries ago. But Isara's greatest enemy may not be the cult lurking in the shadows; it may be the legacy buried within her own bloodline.
As whispers of treachery echo through palace halls and forbidden knowledge surfaces, Isara forms uneasy alliances with her loyal handmaiden Kiya and the enigmatic Prince Djoser, whose motives are as shadowed as his lineage. Together, they race against time to find the Pharaoh's missing heart, the dark artifact needed to complete the cult's ritual and unleash an ancient evil upon the world.
With the fate of an empire hanging in the balance, Isara must confront the truth about her family's betrayal, the curse that binds her, and the darkness she fears is growing inside her. The question isn't whether she can stop the prophecy-but whether she can do so without becoming part of it.
Children of the Black Sun is a gripping tale of ancient curses, shadowy conspiracies, and the haunting cost of destiny. In a world where history is written in blood, Isara must choose between defying fate or becoming the vessel of its darkest truths.
