Meanwhile, Shivi must navigate a treacherous labyrinth of shifting alliances, backstabbing rivals, and the insidious whispers of ancient evils. Each sibling stood at a precipice.

Edileth accepts, not knowing that it will lead her to participate in a power struggle much bigger than herself.

Their common goal to prevent Gael-Narenth from falling to Si-ol's tyrannical sorcerer-king brings them together in more ways than one, and Edileth starts to care for her companions. But it is impossible to ignore the war approaching, and Edileth must embrace her scorned gift, or watch her companions perish. ~~~~ Won 2nd place in the Fantasy genre for The Lotus Awards 2020.
