Journey to Rallem (2025)

After losing her loved ones in a war she fought for the greater good, Josie, a priestess, finds that time only serves to deepen her pain. When she hears about a way to exploit her connection to the Spirit Realm to bring them back, she gathers her friends and sets out across an unmapped continent to find it.

Jameson, one of those traveling with her, is a half-angel with an inferiority complex. He's had feelings for her for quite some time, but has never spoken up about it. He'll do anything to see her happy again, even if it means bringing them back and watching over her as she loves them.

As they travel, they come into contact with Rath, a deranged priest from Josie's line. Rath exploits Josie's vulnerability to breathe life back into a war he fought long ago against Jameson's ancestor, Rettferd. This further complicates their mission. The grief and stress drive Josie to turn to Jameson to ease her mind.
