Herah War Hej was many things: master artist, zealot teen, and unfortunate participant.
One thing she was not, was human.
Born in a universe where humanity never appeared, the artist is a Cendreux; one of many dragon-like, humanoid conquerors who've turned their backs on their god. She hopes to reverse this course and make weapons for her race's planet conquering needs.
Before she can do that, however, Herah must first take part in a deadly game known as Recompense.
Chosen as one of two representative of her universe by her Maker, Norwe, because of her mysterious power known as a Gift, the artist must complete a series of "acts", each having its own simple but heinous task to accomplish.
If won, she shall be granted a single wish of almost anything she desires.
If lost, the few things she loves will be destroyed.
With this threat hanging over her head, Herah has to grapple with not just entertaining her Maker, but working with the hostile human leading her team and pushing through both sins from the past and the ones she's committing in the present.
Herah is in for the battle of her life.
But she is a master artist, and BATTLE IS AN ART.

Dull Colours [EDITED EDITION]
[EDITED EDITION] Hera could no longer hear the clicking of her heels as she walked towards the Magic Fountain, the fountain that would protect her from possession of a Conjured. The floor here was still stone like in the hallway, yet it was dead quiet. Her shoes just made no noise. She was so close she could make out the individual strands of magic in the water of the Fountain when she heard the scream. It was shrill and blood-curdling, filled with so much fear it made Hera want to scream herself. Which she did, when she looked up. It was a Conjured. Looking directly at her. ~~~~~ Hera Giala loves books. She kind of sees herself as a background character, necessary to the plot but not really anything special. Yet no amount of reading could have prepared her for what was to come. A war has been waging for centuries. The war between Giala and Conjured - evil, decaying, humanlike creatures with burning blue eyes and a hatred for royals. Royals like Hera, princess of Giala. And now, as the new queen, it's Hera's job to kill them, and not loose herself or the bright colours of her world in the battle for peace.Complete

In fact, she learns that everything she holds dear on this magical planet is about to be wiped from existence. She just had to fight the Enemy- and lost a lot in the effort- and now she must immediately enter into battle once again!
