Ramuel, a half-human, half-Rak outcast, fights to survive in a world that rejects him. His ash-gray skin and imposing frame make him a target of intolerance, often forcing him into demeaning jobs or sometimes theft. Finding himself without money, food, or a place to sleep, he accepts a contract to recover a mysterious chest, unknowingly binding himself to an Escheltirion ghost and a curse of Rot and Wither. With no other magical means to break it, he must journey through an abandoned and dangerous domain. Growing weaker by the day, Ramuel hires a crew and, through shared trials and secrets, forms unexpected friendships. It is in his final days that he discovers the true meaning of life and companionship.

Revenance is a character-driven story following Ramuel, and his personal battles and situational conflicts. A product of the ruin when his mother’s village is sacked by monstrous men from the Orakkan continent, Ramuel wrestles with the prejudice of others and his own self-loathing. With his ash-gray skin and imposing frame, humans see him as iniquitous, yet it is his human traits that make him inferior to the raks. Honest jobs don’t come easy, so he earns what little he has by working demeaning jobs or, when necessity leaves him no choice, from taking what he must.

" Should a child be begotten of violence, and no stem nor blossom of the Queen of Virtue be procured, the mother is instructed to leave the unwanted whelp among the creatures of the wood, allowing Mother Nature to end what the gods have deemed an abomination."
