Until a heated encounter leads to a steamy kiss.

Alles heeft een schaduwkant, zelfs de wereld waarin wij leven. Er is altijd een punt waarop het duister met het licht versmelt – een plek waar deze werelden samenkomen. Er zijn drie dingen die de veertienjarige Olivia nooit heeft gehad: een vader, een moeder en een stem.

Maar zelfs mét een stem zou Olivia zwijgen over de schimmen en wezens die alleen zij kan zien.

Israel: A Biblical Perspective begins by defining who Israel is, tracing its origins back to the patriarch Abraham and the formation of the Twelve Tribes. These tribes, descended from Jacob (whose name was changed to Israel), each inherited territory in the Promised Land under a divine covenant. The concept of “Spiritual Israel” is introduced as a broader spiritual lineage, suggesting that membership extends beyond physical descent to those who embrace the faith.

Humanity has been brought to the brink of extinction. Each night, the world is overrun by demons - bloodthirsty creatures of nightmare that have been hunting the surface for over 300 years. A scant few hamlets and half-starved city-states are all that remain of a once proud civilization, and it is only by hiding behind wards, ancient symbols with the power to repel the demons, that they survive. A handful of Messengers brave the night to keep the lines of communication open between the increasingly isolated populace.
