In a realm once defined by Eden's fallout, God has split into two halves-one of gentle healing, one of merciless wrath-vying for mortal worship. Tova, a battered city overshadowed by a charred orchard, refuses both illusions. Guided by Naamah's radical new language-one devoid of the words for worship or cosmic terror-Tova cultivates a worldview unchained by altars. Michael, Gabriel, and Lucifer, each scarred by Heaven's contradictions, stand alongside mortals who will not kneel. War-cults rally behind the red god's demand for fear, while enclaves embrace the gold god's soothing but stifling mercy. Returning from a cosmic Void, Lucifer reveals that mortals possess an older spark than any deity-an inheritance of flame beyond God's divided aspects. In Tova, ex-zealots learn to read and rebuild, forging new truths in ashes. As armies mobilize for an inevitable conflict-not angels versus humans, but truths battling for mortal hearts-Tova's orchard remains unbowed, carrying hope for a fractured world where cosmic illusions cannot overshadow the flame within.
