I’m thrilled to have Yvette Calleiro here today to share in her good news of the very soon-to-be-released book, “The One Redeemed.” I have loved the entire Diasodz Series, and I’m so excited that the journey continues with Drake.

Diasodz World
Welcome to the world of the Diasodz! Some of you may already be immersed in their world, but for those of you who are new to it, I wanted to share a little bit about it with you. I created this world almost fifteen years ago. It’s still hard to wrap my head around that. Diasodz are special beings who were created by the Goddess to live among humans. Their purpose was to heal and protect humans from evil in the world. Because they aged more slowly than humans, they needed a place to go where they could live a generation or two before coming back to Earth to reassimilate into society.
That is how Caelagios came to be! A lot of research went into creating the species and the world. You will learn about the characters at the next stop on this blog tour. When I was searching for a name for their world, I leaned on Latin and Greek root words. Caelestis is a Latin root word that means heavenly, and hagios is a Greek root word that means sacred, holy, and heavenly. So, I created a heavenly sanctuary for them – Caelagios.
Caelagios has much in common with Earth since Earth is their first home. The environment on Caelagios is more vibrant in color, and the animals are unique to its planet. Though they resemble some animals from Earth, their characteristics are a bit different. For example, a fox would have reflective fur so it blends into its surroundings easily. Birds have multi-colored feathers, and butterflies have iridescent wings. Swans are larger than those on Earth, and some are even golden in color.
Houses appear to be modest from the outside. Once inside, the house expands to include multiple floors and wings. Diasodz use portals to get from one place to the other. There are private portals within the home with restrictions on who can use them and public portals in main areas available to everyone.
Most importantly, in Caelagios, Diasodz can use their Goddess-given magic in most places. Their powers are restricted in the High Council’s courtroom and in the Elders’ presence. Using their powers freely allows them to perfect their skills without worrying about humans discovering them.
As beautiful and free as Caelagios is, it was never meant to be a permanent home for Diasodz. When they began treating it as such, their powers began to fade. And that led to the beginning of the series – the Diasodz had to fulfill the prophecy that claimed their powers could be restored if they could find the savior who could heal them all.
Thank you for joining me in learning a bit about the Diasodz’s world.
Blurb
Drake had been an agent for chaos, a tyrant who focused only on his desires, even when they hurt those he claimed to love the most. Would dying to protect his daughter redeem him? Or would he spend an eternity reliving his biggest regrets?
Electrifying pain coursed through Drake’s veins as he sacrificed his life to save his daughter. When he becomes conscious again, reality sets in. He is dead. While he is overcome with grief, his mortal enemy, Goddess, offers him a path to redemption. In order to find his way back to his children, he must first revisit his past and atone for his choices. The journey will be brutal, and his outcome is not guaranteed.
Failure is not an option for Drake. He will do anything to get back to his children to make amends for his actions, even if it means sacrificing himself all over again.

What an imagination! That’s a different twist on an evil chaotic creature.
It really is, Marsha. It’s a great series!
Thank you, Marsha! Drake definitely evolved over the series. When I first created him, he was evil to the core. And he was the villain even at his death, but he found a way to show me a different side to him and wiggled his way into my heart. Lol! I appreciate you visiting today. 🙂
