Three women. Three lives. One thread connecting them all.

Orla lives in a land fractured by conquest, where her people, forgotten and fading, suffer inside a magical barrier. When she crosses paths with a dangerous lord from the ruling Aevari, she’s forced into a world of decadence, violence, and twisted devotion. Her only ally? A deadly, stoic captain who seems strangely invested in her survival.

Xanthe, meanwhile, serves quietly in a temple devoted to the goddess Lyra, training for a life she never chose. When a wounded sentinel stirs forbidden hope—and a famed Aevari warrior reveals chilling secrets— she begins to question everything she's been taught. As buried memories rise and loyalties fray, Xanthe uncovers a darkness that could destroy more than just her future.

Worlds away in Tokyo, exchange student Lia is unraveling. She worries for her sanity as vivid dreams of places she’s never been, people she’s never known, and ends she’s never met all begin to bleed into her waking life. And when a familiar stranger insists they've been bound together by the gods themselves, she must confront the terrifying possibility that perhaps she isn't going crazy.

As danger tightens around them, each woman must decide: will she accept the path laid before her—or fight to forge her own?
