The continent of Kalahari bore the scars of the brutal war that birthed a mysterious weapon. After four decades of fragile peace, the threat of looms as an old enemy returns from across the vast sea. The Crown Princess of Lieta embarks on a perilous quest for the ancient artifact of boundless power. Her aim: to match the invaders' military might with a force capable of turning the tides. Yet, her control over magic wavers, spiralling into insanity, while the continent's political landscapes is falling to pieces. 
☆☆☆ 
In a moment of destiny, she stood face to face with the princess, a mere touch igniting an electrifying surge of magic through Arinya's veins. The energy cascaded, tracing radiant blue pathways across her skin. Overwhelmed, she sank to her knees, gazing at the woman before her. A creature devoid of sentiment, a riddle unto herself.
"What have you done?" Arinya's voice quivered with demand.
"Only what has been done before," the woman whispered enigmatically. "Time never ceased to flow, and keeps turning, and now the balance rests within your grasp."
Amid the enigmatic words and the surreal scene, comprehension eluded Arinya, confounded by the otherworldly creature's cryptic wisdom. The world spun once more, enveloping her in darkness.

She is a monster, a nightmare, a killer, who dreams of an ancient battlefield and a different, brutal world where stars fall and dark blood stains the earth. Kye Merran is an Ember, one who wields fire magic. When a childhood friend shows up at his house with a strange girl who is bleeding black blood, he knows that he's getting into something he definitely shouldn't. Especially when the Dark King of Rurik, who may have much more to him than it seems, is looking to conquer another kingdom or two, preferably with a powerful, dark queen at his side. But Kye can't seem to stay away from the mysterious girl with the blood of Darkness. And Val can't stay away from Kye either, no matter how much she claims that she hates him. As Val, Kye, and their friends race to stop the Dark King and his approaching army, what they don't realize is that they are playing a part in an ancient, deadly game, a game between the light and the dark, one years in the making. But it is a game which neither of them can win, for their fates have already been determined by the desperate Gods, written in blood among the stars.

Faced with the most difficult decision of her life as her feelings for Hades intensify, Allana must choose between following her desires to explore her dark side and claiming what she believes is hers, or becoming the hero her father always envisioned.
