To my God, who loved me and knew me before I was even formed, whose hand has bestowed on me any talents that I have or will yet possess. May all the praise redound to Him, and to Him be the glory forever and ever.
To my parents, who taught me to read and to love learning; my sister Mercy, who was with Legea from the very first moment; and my sister Peace, who reads it all with avidity and even offers the occasional, welcome critique.
To nightwraith17, who is thoughtful, kind, crazy, and incredibly sensitive and understanding. Also undyingly supportive and like a sister to me, and one of those people I can just PM and chat about literally anything anytime. I can't imagine life without you.
To LuckyPlum, whose wisdom and support has blessed me through (almost) eighteen months of Wattpad experience. You handle so much, dear friend, and yet you still make time for me. And I'll always say how you discovered me "before I was cool".
To Illeandir and GadSul, my loyal Wattpad buddies – you guys are the best. Wouldn't trade you for the world.
To Dante_Greywolf, my first massive comment-spammer and one of the best readers out there. You're never afraid to tell me exactly what you think.
All you Wattpad people have followed me through three entire books. Thank you so much for sticking around this long. It is only going to get cRaZiEr from here on out!
To CelticWarriorQueen17, who's still about the hardest Friona shipper out there, and also a wonderful friend.
And finally to all the other readers of the Ceristen series, who haven't caught up to this book yet, and to any silent readers that I might have. You are worth so much to me. I am glad for all of you to be embarking on this journey.
... Which seems to be ending in war...
