But when a strange magical incident leaves him marked by something beyond human understanding, Lucien discovers that he may not be the one doing the witnessing.

As the boundary between storyteller and story begins to disappear, Lucien and the adventurers must uncover what has chosen him-and why it refuses to look away.

**Every queen has a shadow. Aurelia Veyne was born without one.** For twenty-one years, Princess Aurelia Veyne has lived with a secret no one outside the royal family must ever discover. She has no shadow. Now, as the kingdom of Veyr prepares for her coronation, strange things are happening within the ancient palace. Mirrors show places that do not exist. Forgotten queens appear in records that were meant to remain buried. And something beneath the castle has begun to stir. Then Aurelia sees her own reflection move. The woman staring back has Aurelia's face-but she is older, scarred, and haunted by centuries of suffering. Her warning is simple: **Do not become me.** As political tensions threaten to tear Veyr apart, Aurelia is forced to uncover the truth behind her family's crown, the queens who came before her, and the dark secret hidden beneath the throne. But the deeper she searches, the more terrifying the truth becomes. Her missing shadow was never missing. It was waiting. And whatever has been waiting for her has been beneath the crown for centuries. **Some destinies are inherited. Others are chosen. And some will kill to make sure you choose correctly.**
