Two sisters. Two sides of a conflict. Valessa Galvion, a half-breed with dreamy eyes, has all the charisma, charm, and wit of the noble lineage she was denied. The sharp tongue, biting comments and cynical outlook however, are courtesy of her half-vampire, half-werewolf, lineage. She is everything her country despises; power, nobility, and the mixing of blood. She places herself near the central figures of the rebellion, not comrade, not enemy. Will she be able to carve out a place for herself and others like her?
Miranda Herne has been shaped, sculpted, and polished to the height of her potential as befits the first in line and heir to the Dasiks Dutchy. She wants none of it. A life of luxury and responsibilities has left her questioning the policies of her predecessors and her fathers sanity. Young and inexperienced, she looks to her people and her sister for guidance. However, can the people put their distrust aside long enough to come to an understanding?
Twelve-hundred years ago, the first king of Sacreon led a rebellion against an empire of witches. The war for who would rule next continues to this day. A false guise of peace came over Ert after two genocides, but there is no one so foolish as to claim the fighting is done. A prophecy claims that war will return to Ert when the moons are full once again on Ascenday. That day is growing closer now, and there is not a fool in the warring nations who does not dread its coming.
In the midst of this all, the heirs to Sacreon struggle to find their place in this world of kings and knights and gods and elves and witches. A princess falls for someone she cannot hope to have, prince travels south to broker an alliance, a warrior seeks vengeance for the death of her sister. and the heir to a long forgotten kingdom quests for glory. Behind all of this, one man journeys north to an island of long forgotten magic with plans of justice, and The Wolf Witch goes west, searching for the one who can stop this war and unite Ert once again: The Silver Girl.
Note: The Wolf Witch is meant to be a prequel to this book, and Sora will make an appearance, but she will not be a main character. By the way I take huge inspiration and influence from A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones so if you like that you'll probably like this (and my other writings I hope).
Cover created by the most excellent @apprehensiveanne. It's very cool.
