The Golden Kingdom of Atria was a lie. Society hid in their palaces and mansions, carefully existing only in the bubble of their own greed and security. Outside the gilded palaces, the people struggled. Magic users persecuted, rebel sects destroyed as soon as they were outed.
Lady Rosalyn of Rainfell straddled both worlds. Daughter of a Duke, an eligible society lady. Clandestine leader of a rebel sect. Her two lives were carefully kept apart. Until a chance meeting on a promenade threw both unalterably together.
