The boundaries between real and myth may be fading, but the people of Iherion is not prepared to face the nightmares from their childhood, nor are they willing to accept an orphaned, power-less girl as one of their own. When Khoeli leaves behind the monastery where she grew up, she unknowingly sets into motion plans that have been brewing for hundreds and hundreds of years. But with a past that's still foggy and little idea of the power she holds, how can she ever learn to lead Iherion against the shadows? Are the shadows even the true enemy? The fall of the Tu'uli upended Zamir's former life as a guard's son. Distraught and left fatherless by the murders, he unwittingly formed a lifelong contract with the mythical Mo'ori - gifting him with raw power flowing through his veins. But when a retrieval mission puts him face to face with a person he thought was dead, it takes every ounce of his being to hold back the truth about her past. While Khoeli takes her first steps into her newfound powers, Zamir grapples with a terrifying secret as the ghosts of the two's tangled past come to collect their dues.

I'm a huge fan of the Celestial Academy Series, by MyLovelyWriter. If you don't have any idea who she is, please go look her up. Right now. Her books are amazing. I'm using these one-shots to try and figure out how to make my writing better while playing around with her world. She's made a beautiful world and I know all of us out there love Corvan and Valeriana, so I wanted to expand on their interactions with this book. ***The characters are NOT mine***
