"I am not livestock." After a brutal ambush, Kaelan awakens in the suffocating darkness of a stone pit, bound in iron and stripped of her Palantinian rank. In this hollow of the Axen Wyrm, she is confronted by a weak-voiced captor who claims her imprisonment is merely a test for a new initiate. But Kaelan is no stranger to being traded like property. Drawing on the "righteous fury" of a past defined by betrayal, she must use her "studious eye" to craft an escape from nothing but bone, bronze, and blood. The pit was designed to break her identity; instead, it becomes the forge where a survivor is reborn.
