Women have no place... Except in the hands of fate. 
    
    As the firstborn son of General Calloway, Mera's twin brother, Luke, has trained his entire life to inherit the magic in his bloodline and serve his kingdom in a vicious, century-long war. In a society with no regard for women, she has grown up so deep in his shadow that she does not know herself beyond him, in a light of her own. 
    
    The powers are unpredictable. Once the child hits adolescence, they appear randomly, and her family, having waited nearly a decade, are beyond impatient. But the Gifting is close. The seer has foretold it. Just as the prophecy predicts that the new generation will be the one to end the conflict once and for all. 
    
    Mera has waited as anxiously as the entire kingdom for her brother's awakening, for him to fulfill his destiny as the Champion, drawing on nineteen years of ruthless training to bring a swift end to a terrible war. She cannot wait to watch him become a hero, a victor, the saviour of the land. 
    
    Until the day she wakes up with the powers instead.
