She is a thief, light-footed and relentless, shaped by a hard life and hardened by betrayal. For years, she searched for the island of her mother's bedtime songs, stories that became obsession, then legend, then mockery.

He is the guardian, the first and only chosen in over a century. Honored but exiled, he lives alone, watching over the slumbering god buried beneath the temple stone. His only companion: Mikoh, a massive feline beast-part protector, part judge.
