SOME DEBTS CAN’T BE FORGOTTEN. SOME CRIMES CAN’T BE FORGIVEN.

The Last War is over.

Yas, somehow, is one of the survivors. Now, all she wants to do is live in peace with her son and forget what she had to do to make it through the war alive. It's the least she deserves after all she's endured.

But this is Jia, and the Four Gods are cruel.

The Egril may be gone but Yas' enemies still live. And they will have vengeance in this life or the next.

A Lost Cause is a brutal new short story set in the world of The Last War.
