A mysterious man only known as the Pied Piper haunts Aschein. Not only does he lead children away, but he robs many towns of the magic that sustains their life. Now, monsters overrun the world, and humans are being driven into a corner, unable to fend off the creatures that attack them more and more frequently. Enter sixteen year-old Klaudia, a disabled girl who was left behind because she was unable to follow the Piper. She is a living curse to the people of Hamelin, a painful reminder of their misfortune--and has no place in the town. When she receives a marriage proposal from the powerful Lord Himmel, she accepts without hesitation. Introduced into the world of magic, Klaudia finds her calling as a Magus, a powerful brand of sorcerers whose Affinities are among the most powerful in the world. But underneath the glamour and the luxury of Lord Himmel's castle lies a deadly secret. Soon, Klaudia will learn that not everything is as it seems, and freedom will always come at a dangerous price. *** EDITOR'S CHOICE OCTOBER 2020 Previously Wattpad Featured Lovely cover by @seventhstar Word count: 127K

Do you remember the last time the sun shone? The sky was the color of bluebirds, and the clouds were white as lilies. You could see colors all the way to the horizon. Then it all turned red, then violet, then dark. This is a story of eternal night, the clockwork city, the petrified woods, and the precious resource of sunlight. While the empress prepares to break a centuries-old contract with the monsters of the dark, children are disappearing one by one. Rebellion explodes in the streets. The forest swarms with yellow eyes. Three lead the way toward the end of everything, though they don't know it: Alexis, the loyal warrior with misplaced trust and a poisonous secret; Briony, the miscreant who stands defiant in the belly of the devouring forest; and Runa, whose faith in the human heart may finally break the masks of the ones who were lost.
