Seye is the Princess of the Nation of Ecos, and the royal power her brother reluctantly accepts is the power she wishes her father bestowed on her instead. But she begins to learn her brother's claim to the throne is not the only plan of the King's Seye does not agree with--and that her brother's title may soon be the least of her worries. Eyori has yet to meet the man she will marry in just two weeks. Trading in her throne to her home Kingdom of Augoria to be Prince Leif's Queen in Ecos is not a trade she ever wished to make, but as she settles into to her new home, plagued by strange dreams, she learns that her marital arrangement is not the only thing in Ecos she has to fear. Firren is a foreigner in Ecos, hiding her suspiciously powerful magic in plain sight as the Court Mage's apprentice. Despite her strikingly Northern looks and her heavy accent, Firren manages to make Grandpoint castle her home. But she did not expect to come face to face with the dark prophecy she ran from so far from home--or so soon.
