de·scent | dəˈsent | noun 1. an action of moving downward, dropping, or falling. 2 the origin or background of a person in terms of family or nationality. 3. a moral, social, or psychological decline into a specified undesirable state. After being suddenly spurred by necessity to meet her estranged family, the ruling family Amastacia of the Drow, our sweet little half-elf Lumen finds her life utterly changed, leaving secluded woodlands for the gilded luxuries and power-games of palace life in the Underdark's most-feared civilization. Her grandmother, Queen Senva Amastacia, welcomes her with open arms, but what secrets lurk in the caverns' shadowy depths under the eight-eyed gaze of the Drow's spidery goddess? And when the darkness comes reaching for the one she loves, will Lumen face it, or succumb to it? Descensus is, at its heart, a story about the lengths we go for love, be they justified or not.
