The Final Retribution

Six women were chosen to preserve the balance.
Rome left only two alive.
Britannia, AD 363.
For generations, six Keepers have carried knowledge entrusted to them by the Earth, each woman holding only a part of what must never belong to any one person.
Livia has never questioned the purpose of that division.
Until Rome destroys it.
When suspicion turns a provincial governor against the Keeper families, soldiers descend upon their homes. Houses burn. Families are slaughtered. Children and servants die alongside the women Rome believes it has erased.
Only Livia and Nessa survive.
Hunted and grieving, they flee west, carrying the remnants of a knowledge that was never meant to exist in isolation. There, among people whose traditions reach further back than Rome's occupation of Britain, they discover fragments of something attempted generations before-something neither Keeper knowledge nor Druid learning could complete alone.
At first, they seek understanding.
Then they learn the name of the man who ordered the massacre.
Flavius Marcellus.
What begins as a search for answers becomes a journey towards retribution. But the power Livia and Nessa uncover was separated for a reason, and vengeance has a cost you can't always choose in advance.
Because some knowledge does more than heal.
Some knowledge opens doors.
And once opened, you can't close it.
The Final Retribution is a dark historical supernatural novel set in Roman Britain, exploring ancient knowledge, grief, loyalty, and the dangerous distance between justice and revenge. A standalone story within The Keepers' Legacy, it reveals another chapter in a struggle whose consequences will echo across centuries.
