Since then, it has been edited, with an added prologue, expanded dialogue and shortened scenes. The plot remains the same, but it’s worth a reread even if you’ve read this  \nbefore.  \nThe Path of Blood and Betrayals is the first in a planned trilogy, set in a world where magic is a myth, the species are distrustful and separated, while still rebuilding from a war that happened centuries ago.  \nAlso, nothing is what it seems.  \nIt is a dark romantasy, and as such there are content warnings. Please check my website [https://authoredcroweonline.com/books/triggerwarnings](https://authoredcroweonline.com/books/triggerwarnings) for a complete list. Mental health is important.  \nThe main characters will have their HEA. Just not yet.
