The Monarch by Karen Davis

In reality as we know it where wizardry is ordinary, maverick plagues of nature wander the grounds, and gods exist, a solitary kid named Raphael looks to correct retribution against the very killers that destroyed his life, leaving him the main hapless overcomer of their invasion. He joins the Hunters, a gathering of old champions committed to safeguard the terrains, with only retribution at the forefront of his thoughts. Yet, soon, he winds up becoming associated with an option that could be greater than he can deal with. Monsters, the Ancient Blood, the Deathless… The universe is becoming old and exhausted, and he's seeing its agonies surface individually. What's more, they aren't charming. Ultimately, he observes that the inquiry is no more drawn out 'how' he will get his payback, or 'when'. It's if there's a point in him doing as such.
