“Of course I was afraid, but I had to do it. I’m more afraid of what I left behind.” Runaway is the story of Sophie, a young woman who has spent her life studying and mastering the arcane practice of magic, forced to flee her home and a promising future in Zo’rahn—a land that esteems mages above all others—in order to escape the clutches of those who would use her talents for their own designs.

Ruby Valestris, the daughter of a baron and student at Valwen College, thought she understood her place in the Andrean Empire: graduate as a mage, marry a duke, and continue the line of nobility. Every part of her life perfectly planned since birth. But when her friend Kai steals an artifact from the college vaults, she offers Ruby another option—a chance to choose her own future. While on the run, they cross paths with Serik, a wilder who has a mysterious history with Ruby’s fiancé, and Gav, a charming loresinger with a bounty on his head.
