Ishtar’s Offer: The War for the Underworld

You, a recently deceased soul, awaken at the threshold of the Underworld, moments from being claimed by Ereshkigal’s dominion. Before you are consumed by oblivion, Ishtar appears, radiant and terrible, offering you a chance at resurrection—if you swear loyalty to her cause. She promises you power over the dead, dominion beside her, and a return to life when she seizes the Underworld from her sister. But to accept is to declare war on death itself.
