Elonian warrior Nieve isn’t thrilled about being asked to mentor a prophesied ‘chosen one’ who can’t tell a sword from a hairbrush. Yet the king’s command is absolute, and time’s running short.

An unprovoked attack at night finally convinces Lea that Nieve’s not some raving lunatic. Soon, she throws herself into this new reality that hails her as a hero. A reality in which she can become invisible, light up like a torch, and fly with the birds.
But as the saying goes, all is fun and games until one of them dies...
