The last king of Aahsgoth abdicated his crown. His children that were born royalty are no longer sure where they fit into this world. When they discover a terrifying truth, will they embrace a new destiny or fall to darkness?

Book Synopsis

When powerful siblings discover a terrifying truth, will they embrace a new destiny or turn to darkness?

Ashaya Blacksun has had a weight lifted from her shoulders. Freed by her father's abdication of his crown, the former princess's delight over choosing her own path is barely dimmed by her strange and haunting dreams. But when her beloved twin brother doesn't return home from a ranging expedition, the unconventional young woman fears something has gone terribly wrong.

Born into royalty, Sirich Blacksun quietly seethes that he's no longer heir to the throne. Still determined to maintain a position of leadership, he sets out to investigate the disturbing news of carnage in the south. But when he crosses paths with a powerful figure straight out of lore, the temptation to ignore his beloved father's bold vision in favor of his own ambition becomes increasingly difficult to resist.

Defying tradition by sneaking off to find her missing twin, Ashaya's travels over deadly terrain are plagued by intensifying visions that point to a dark fate. And as Sirich's strange new companion shows him a new way forward, the frustrated would-be king faces a frightening choice.

As these scions of nobility grapple with a new reality, will their quest for truth end in tragedy?
