There are twelve Royal Constellations. Every child in Elarion knows this. Every kingdom was built upon it. Every history confirms it. Every one of them is wrong. When Princess Lyra Ashvale witnesses an impossible thirteenth light burning above the Astrarium, she begins an investigation that unearths a truth someone erased four thousand years ago. But some secrets have survived because someone has spent millennia making sure they never came to light. Because history wasn't forgotten. It was rewritten.

In the fae Summer Kingdom, healers are taught to preserve life while obeying the rules that keep them safe: never use magic on another fae. But when Lucinda uses healing magic to save Oto, a fae boy cursed with lethal shadow magic, she binds her magic with his in a way their kingdom strictly forbids. Lucinda and Oto's magic becomes intertwined, linking them in an escalating psychic connection that will slowly descend them both into madness. While both haunted and comforted by his empathetic connection to Lucinda, Oto must grapple with his own uncontrollable dark magic. As a weapon who kills everything he touches, including his own father, Oto must conquer his own demons before he can give in to his feelings for Lucinda. As Lucinda struggles to obey her father and suppress her growing bond with Oto, the Autumn Kingdom's armies are closing in, threatening to overtake the Summer Kingdom. As Lucinda and Oto's connection develops, they navigate their psychic bond while being tested and manipulated by those who want to exploit it. Plagued by prophetic nightmares of Oto's death on the battlefield, Lucinda must choose between safety and love, obedience and defiance. To save Oto's life again, she must abandon the comfort of everything she knows and take a leap of faith in herself as she follows him to war against the Autumn Kingdom. As their connection deepens and political tensions escalate, the line between protection, possession, and outright madness begins to blur.
