Passivity is no longer an option.
In Galynkhot, oppression devours the innocent like flames on a pyre. Blind obedience is the only way for soldiers in the king’s militia to survive, so Ronan arrests helpless citizens for petty crimes. Torn between his bleeding conscience and keeping his friends safe, Ronan questions if there is any hope left for humans.
Equally desperate is Eira, one of the last Speki assassins, who would burn the world to avenge her people. Her brother, on the other hand, dreams about teaching Manipulation and Seyring magic. Their close sibling bond is threatened as Eira relentlessly pursues her vendetta.
Burning with a condemning secret Khartsaga, teeters between his loyalty to the crown and his father—the cult leader who controls the monarchy with spiritual “guidance”. Guilt and obligation pull Khartsaga’s heart in different directions, threatening to tear him in two.

Soldier. Assassin. Cultist.
