Three worlds, separated only by an ancient Gate Tree, and a rushing river, are in peril. Diana Faleque, a young princess of Vanarya, is thrown into the midst of this raging conflict between the powerful Fae, Man, and the natural world. To one side of this conflict lies an ancient sanctuary guarded by the Fae Council, a group created and commanded by the Goddess called the Mother. To the other side lies the country Avaknor, a cruel and spiteful human civilization just over the Fae's river, itching to strike. Will the humans bow to their neighbor's power? Or rise as one and claim the right to the Gate Tree? As we enter our story on the other side of the Gate Tree, Diana must navigate through being the heir to her father's throne, training, and guilt towards her sister Solanna's disability from birth. Back in the world of the Fae, twins Mya and Rylond grow restless in their newfound prison, which they are expected to call home. When anger stirs among the twins and their fellow captives, the leader of the Fae Council faces death at the hands of the twin's newly formed alliance, called The Seven. With the death of the rest of the Fae Council looming, Diana is made Heir of the Council before she even knows who they are. And so, Diana is now tasked with finding and defeating the rebelling twins, before her world falls apart. But something much darker is creeping from Avaknor toward what Diana loves most in the world, her sister. Will Diana reason with the twins before they destroy themselves? Will Diana push through her guilt and save her sister? As the Heir of the Council rises, the world will bow to her destiny.
