Dawn Everhart has been picking up the broken pieces of peoples lives for years. With an ability to see directly into people's souls, and read their future, she has brought hope to Claireveiw since the day her mother died.
But looking after a bunch of people is exhausting- especially when they threaten her exposure to the real world when she doesn't. So when Dawn suddenly finds her front porch cascaded with light, feathery blue petals one morning, she can't believe her eyes- or how alive she suddenly feels with them in her hands.
When everything in Dawn's life comes crashing down when a secretive government facility comes hunting after her to destroy the one thing they fear most, Dawn is forced to flee the safety of Claireveiw. Escape is necessary, and as time goes on, Dawn starts to run out of ideas... that is, until a dark, handsome man finds her hiding place and shows up on her doorstep with the same glowing eyes as the colour of the lotus petals. After a few moments with him, Dawn is forced to make a decision... follow him... or disappear forever into the hands of the government.
Even if Dawn does accept the boys hand, the government has her picture...
And they will stop at nothing to have her...

What happens when she, despite the agonies life carries, says to abandon everything right here and now and leave? Alcestis did not need to be told twice. Seizing the chance to escape the horrible clutches of her grandparents, she sets out to find the Elementals-a band of heroes protecting the human realm from those that lied beyond, headed by her parents. She knew of the darkness that festered within her; she knew of the hatred that danced in her heart. More than anything, she knew the extents of how fragmented her soul was. What, perhaps, would unfold when she sets out on her journey, leaving behind the world she knew; leaving behind what hopefulness remained in her battered heart? None would heed her an answer, indeed. None save for the rage that tainted her being.
