A dying princess, a reluctant mortal, an intergalactic historian, and several, SEVERAL assassins. Prepare for sass.
The ancient world of Rhoessmoure seems peaceful in its humble, primitive ways, perhaps even perfect. But then the war hit. In a kingdom of sorcerers, one girl makes it her life mission to peacefully resolve this war, hiding the fact that it's all simply a distraction for dealing with the burden of guilt she carries. The only problem? She has eight months to live, is the heir to the throne, and has a boat ton of bounty hunters after her.
Will she be able to solve the war before her time is up, or will she die defending the world she loves? Read this story with the narrative of an intergalactic historian and uncover a world of magic, guilt, and heartache.
A world where magic must be hidden from mankind is a world where mages have no reason to exist.
Zara was one of them--a young woman forced to spend her days in confinement, to lessen the risks of outsiders discovering the truth.
She was not human.
She was, as they say, a living embodiment of a thousand year old curse upon the Kingdom and humanity as a whole.
And the only way to handle a curse, is to get rid of it--which is precisely what the Kingdom has proceeded in doing for centuries--eliminating any being that contained even an ounce of enchanted blood.
Zara's lived most of her life with the threat of death hanging over her head. Though this never averted her heightening curiosity about magic, nor the abilities innate within her.
And when a powerful, enigmatic Sorcerer comes to her with a proposition, Zara finally sees her chance to embrace the curse she was born with.
It was a chance laced with precarity and destruction, but a chance nonetheless...
