INTRODUCTION
Lyra Syagros
The weigh of a kingdom is bestowed upon the shoulders of a teenage girl; one whose emotions she's only discovering. As she learns to be a monarch, she also learns that love cannot be controlled by social status or political power.

Along the way, she must grapple with difficult decisions and learn to balance her personal desires with her duty to her people. Through it all, she learns that love is not something that can be controlled or dictated by external factors, but rather a powerful force that can transform and inspire us to be our best selves.
