After the death of her adoptive father, Audra assumes his duties and begins carrying out assignments as a contract killer. She adjusts to her new role, tapping into the skills she had perfected at a young age, thanks to her father.
Audra soon discovers that the magic that has protected the land of Votara for hundreds of years is slowly dying. Something sinister is coming, a threat that is even greater and far more perilous than the dark beasts her father protected her from. She is thrust into a new reality in which her world revolves around nobility, friendship, and the metaphysical, combined with fiery passion, tension, and newfound allies. It becomes clear that it is Audra's duty to save the innocent, and she learns that she is intricately woven into this role in more ways than one.
