Templum: Fire Bender

Beatrice Cualli, known to most as Bea, is many things: a Sicari assassin, a future member of the Templum, a magician. Most importantly, she is loyal by far to Alexandria, and the Alexandrians who raised her. When she is sent alongside a friend to Mavia, the Southern capital and headquarters for rebels that have been attacking the Templum for years, she does so without question, and intends to play her part to perfection. Not a day goes by where she doesn't think about what the rebels have taken from her, and she is determined to get revenge.

Luca Barlowe is a member of the royal guard of Mavia, a close friend to the Crown Prince, and loyal to the rebel cause along with the rest of Mavia. When he is ordered to befriend a girl from Alexandria in order to gain access to the Templum and destroy it from the inside, he doesn't hesitate. The balance of power will only be restored if the Templum is burnt to ashes, and he wants nothing more than to be the one to do it.

When the two meet, chaos ensues. Bea believes Luca to be a stubborn mule, and Luca thinks Bea is a snobbish princess. However, as both spend months in the Mavi city, secrets are released between them, changing everything. Both Bea and Luca must decide whether their lifelong loyalties to their respective homes matter more than their world, and what they are willing to do to make it a better one.
