At Asrai's Academy for Orphans, Hyacinth stands at a crossroads, torn between the safety of the only home she has ever known and leaving it all behind for a chance at a new life—for freedom. When a mysterious messenger appears, whispering rumors of a God among Fae, everything Hyacinth thought she knew about the Realms comes crashing down.

Redelvtum has fallen. The realms stand at the edge of war. And something far darker lurks beneath the chaos, waiting to seize control.

As armies gather and ancient powers stir, she is forced to make an impossible choice—cling to the love and the life she's always wanted or become the weapon the realms need.
