I've always wondered what it would be like to drown, until the day I died. The fear of fighting, struggling to break the surface, just to get one last breath of air. The panic, the terror, the hopelessness, all rushing in as the water fills your lungs. It's a thought that haunts me, even now. Stiles from Teenwolf once said, " You know when you're drowning, you don't inhale until right before you black out. It's called voluntary apnea. It's like no matter how much you're freaking out, the instinct to not let any water in is so strong that you won't open your mouth until you feel like your head's exploding. " That's how I felt when I was dying. The irony is that I never died drowning in the water. I died gasping for air on the floor of my bedroom, afraid that when I stopped breathing, that would be the end. There would be no afterlife, no heaven or hell. I remember clutching his hand, sobbing, and telling him how afraid I was, and how I didn't want to die. I remember him holding me, telling me it was okay to be afraid. I never drowned, but I knew what it felt like - fighting against all odds for one last breath of air. Until my vision darkened and my head and lungs felt like they were about to explode and then, finally, I gave up and let the water fill my lungs.

Khionia and Calefacious, twins abandoned on the outskirts of the elven city of Gale, have dark and forbidden magic running through their veins. Surrounded by the enemies, the siblings grow up learning not only how to protect their elven people from the threat in the shadows around them, but how to control their own monsters. Yet they will soon discover, hidden within the twist of truth and deceit, a known yet secret war endures between the creatures of darkness and soldiers of light. The foul Underlings of Graderath and the almighty Lordes of Zabethia battle as both sides race to find the prophesied Harbingers; the destined ones to bring forth the apocalypse unto elvenkind. Within the mountain city of Gale, Khionia Ruthigavin finds herself engaged in her own secret war, one that has tormented her since she reached her Strengthening age. A monster lurks beneath her skin, one made of ice and bloodlust, and if she does not meet its malicious demands for release, the repercussions would be catastrophic to those she holds dearest. Along with Calefacious, Khionia is forced to satiate the dark desires of the monster within by hunting her own kind, turning her forbidden magic upon them with brutal consequences. Only her brother's fire can thaw her ice and bring her back from the abyss. That is, until she meets the Prince of the Underlings. Suddenly finding herself thrust into the war between her deities and her enemies, Khionia must work to discover the reality within the ingrained deception around her while trying to accept what, as well as who, is in her soul.
