When gods are forgotten, do they vanish-or do they wait?
Kaelen, born from the residue of a god that never fully existed, drifts between child and myth, searching for meaning in a universe bound together by belief. Within the vast Archive-a living library of memory and divinity-gods begin to flicker and fracture, dissolving into static as the force of belief itself unravels.
When the Dream-Goddess shatters without cause, Kaelen discovers that faith is not just devotion-it is a law of reality, the hidden thread holding existence together. But belief is failing. The Pale, a phenomenon of white static, consumes the forms of gods and myths, leaving silence in its wake.
Crossing into Earth's future, Kaelen encounters Maya, a young girl who still believes when no one else dares. Together, they confront LOGIKON, a machine empire built on certainty, which seeks to suppress faith and imagination in the name of order.
As gods rise in fury and reality fractures at its edges, Kaelen must decide whether they are a child of residue-or the vessel of a force older than belief itself. The Archive trembles between collapse and rebirth, and the fate of memory, myth, and imagination hangs by a fragile thread.
For readers of Neil Gaiman, Susanna Clarke, and Madeline Miller, The Archive of Forgotten Gods is a lyrical, visionary tale of gods, memory, and the fire of imagination that refuses to be silenced.

About the Author
Rui Talaia is not a guru, nor does he claim to have all the answers. He is simply a fellow traveler-curious, open-hearted, and deeply human-who has spent decades exploring the questions that tug at the soul: Who am I? Why am I here? How do I live with meaning in a world that often feels disconnected?
His journey has taken him through many landscapes: from ancient teachings and spiritual communities to quiet moments of reflection and everyday life lessons. Along the way, Rui has come to believe that spirituality isn't something separate from life-it is life, lived with intention, presence, and compassion.
Living the New Age is the second book in his evolving trilogy, a continuation of his honest and heartfelt exploration into how we can bring spirit into the ordinary. His first book laid the foundation; this one invites you to live it. The third and final book is currently in the making, bringing together a lifetime of insights, mistakes, awakenings, and humble wonderings.
Rui writes not as an expert, but as someone who is still learning-still listening. Through his books, he hopes to create a space where readers feel less alone, more empowered, and gently reminded that the sacred is already within them.
