Path of the Saintess Volume IV
(2026)(The fourth book in the Path of the Saintess series)
A novel by Lilith Marlowe
Her system turns hard work into power. Now Elise is ready to turn knowledge into authority.
After advancing to Senior High Cleric, Elise has become the Church of Light’s most valuable young prodigy. She can cast spells beyond her rank, brew potions worth a fortune, and level her skills at a speed that leaves veteran Awakened questioning everything they know.
But talent alone will not carry her to Third-tier.
When Elise pushes [Potioncraft] to LV5, she gains the ability to perceive the microscopic spirituality hidden within magical ingredients. Suddenly, developing new potions is no longer a privilege reserved for Third-tier masters—and the proud elven alchemists of Crimsonwood are forced to reconsider exactly how much the Church still needs them.
Then an ancient Gabeoran Warlock ruin emerges from beneath the Pyreflame Woods.
To everyone else, the ruin is a priceless legacy filled with lost knowledge, powerful equipment, and deadly trials. To Elise, it looks like the perfect dungeon: a place to grind her combat skills, uncover the secrets of Warlock energy, and claim every reward she can get her hands on.
Unfortunately, she is not the only one with plans for Crimsonwood.
Dambos Warlocks are gathering in the forest. Corrupted nobles are hiding behind their titles. An ambitious imperial prince sees the Church’s expansion as an opportunity to seize power. And when a conspiracy places Archbishop Norias in the path of Fourth-tier assassins, Elise discovers that strength is not enough.
She must learn how to protect her people, punish enemies the law cannot touch, and unite factions that would rather fight one another than face the coming Convergence of Planes.
With Third-tier within reach and an entire new city waiting beyond the frontier, Elise is no longer merely the Church’s greatest young genius.
She is becoming a leader.
And anyone who mistakes her kindness for weakness is about to learn the difference.
