The Unclaimed Road

Hecate is not a lesser goddess waiting at someone else's door. When Shaman J Cross, Warden crosses through a gateway cultivated inside his own soul, Hecate discovers the unauthorized passage and calls him before her. Their meeting becomes the threshold of a working relationship: the Warden may travel, but he must know whose country he enters, what he carries, and how he intends to return. The Unclaimed Road presents Hecate as a self-made power of crossroads, witchcraft, guarded passage, difficult mercy, neglected places, and the dead refused at other gates. This is a working grimoire meant to be opened when a reader needs a prayer, a boundary, a record, or a safe way to close what should not remain open. The road may be unclaimed. It is not unguarded.
