On Akuban, power is not inherited-it is mapped. The Beta Ha, an ancient order of seers, have spent centuries shaping the empire's future, guiding rulers toward the most stable outcomes. But as war looms and fate frays, their visions grow dark and uncertain.
Rayor Chassisi was never meant to be more than a nomad. But when an assassination tears through the empire and war spills into his home, he is forced into exile-haunted by voices not his own, visions he cannot explain, and a destiny the Beta Ha whisper he cannot escape.
Shai Rucanrian, princess and seer-in-training, has spent her life struggling to control the power that writhes beneath her skin. When her father is murdered and the empire falls into chaos, she becomes a pawn in a brutal game of survival-one where even the Beta Ha cannot see the outcome.
Far from Akuban, in the cold corridors of exile, Rama Anemro has spent nineteen years hiding from the empire that slaughtered her family. But when an emissary arrives with an offer of war, Rama must decide if reclaiming her name is worth the price of blood.
The Beta Ha have spent lifetimes ensuring balance. But the future is no longer certain, and as war breaks the patterns they've so carefully woven, one question remains: what happens when fate itself begins to unravel?
