For more than three centuries, Rafeal has walked the world between man and monster.
Born in another age and transformed by a curse he never sought, he survives by feeding upon the living while clinging desperately to the fragments of humanity that remain. Time has taken everything from him-family, friends, faith, and the life he once knew-yet he continues onward, haunted by memory and driven by questions that refuse to die.
As the modern world closes around him, Rafeal finds himself drawn into mysteries rooted in both the distant past and the present. Ancient enemies, forgotten promises, and long-buried secrets begin to emerge, forcing him to confront the consequences of centuries of choices. Along the way he encounters soldiers, priests, outcasts, and ordinary people whose lives become entangled with his own.
Neither hero nor villain, Rafeal struggles against the darkness within himself while searching for redemption in a world that increasingly has no place for creatures like him.
Blending historical fiction, supernatural horror, and philosophical reflection, Rafeal explores mortality, faith, love, guilt, and the cost of survival across generations. It is a story of loneliness and hope, of monsters both human and otherwise, and of a man who has lived long enough to witness history itself become memory.
