The Gods Killer In the beginning, he was Arkan the Eternal—a god born of primordial flame, first among the immortals, wielder of divine judgment. He forged empires with a glance and shattered stars with a whisper. But power breeds fear, and even gods fear what they cannot control. Betrayed by his own pantheon—his brothers and sisters bound by jealousy and fear—Arkan was struck down in a celestial war, his soul cast into the void and his name erased from time. But the will of a true god cannot be silenced. Reincarnated in the fragile shell of a mortal, Arkan awakens in a broken world ruled by the very gods who betrayed him. His memories scattered, his power dormant, he walks the earth as a forgotten man—but the divine blood in his veins begins to stir. As ancient forces awaken and the heavens tremble once more, Arkan must reclaim his lost divinity, defy fate itself, and rise from mortality to become what the gods fear most: Not a rival. Not a rebel. But a reckoning. The age of gods is ending. And the killer of gods has returned.

This is the Seven Deadly Cardinals - seven stories of seven different people, how they embody the heavenly cardinal in its goodness and then how they are dragged to become the opposite sin.

There might be longing for what we don't have, driving us to do the unthinkable. Strengths becoming weaknesses, weakness breaking into new strength - it's dance of madness, chaos. Not all is set in stone. The stories include a lady that falls for a serial killer, an actor and tailor, the flower shop owner and orphanage, a priest and gangster mob, an office worker and a stalker, landlords son and new tenant, youth centre worker and how things did not go as it should.
