About The Black Ballad<\/span><\/div>\n
Perhaps you\u2019ll have better luck in the next life\u2026<\/em><\/div>\n
\u00a0 <\/strong><\/div>\n
The poetic mystery of death has long been a fascination for the living. The images of warm hearths and a familial embrace are conjured for some, while others picture screaming in eternal torment at the hands of a demon. And yet, clerics have the power to pluck the dead back from that plane, thrusting them into their mortal coils or even raising them to a state of eternal undeath. Surely the gods would grow weary of their clerics pinching souls that rightfully belong in their afterlife. Wouldn\u2019t they?<\/em><\/div>\n
\u00a0 <\/strong><\/div>\n
If you enjoy curling up to a fantastic novel and escaping to a new world or wish to dive deeper into the lore of The Black Ballad universe, then find a novel (or all of them) that strikes your fancy.<\/div>\n
\u00a0 <\/strong><\/div>\n
After all, a well-read adventurer might avoid future calamities.<\/em><\/div>\n
