Gaia Wept

A Goddess Falls

Gaia wasn’t sure which is more burdensome–having no past or no end. As a newly minted goddess, she coaxes life from the dust of a desolate galaxy and protects it from the universe’s more capricious designs. It’s a rewarding existence but a lonely one. Her work is her sole passion for eons until the unthinkable happens–she falls in love with one of her creations, the handsome and principled Sigil. Whether it’s fate’s way of taunting her with a love she can’t have or just some new torment, there’s no stopping her fall.

Their love spans the ages, with each cosmic cycle bringing him back to her, each time a little closer, but to what end? What kind of life can an immortal and a mortal share, despite a love that transcends time?
