They called her a monster before she even burned a thing.
Elliana has spent her whole life hiding-her scars, her past, and most importantly, the fire buried deep in her blood. But when she saves a young boy from the Queen's soldiers and leaves a city street in flames, she's no longer a secret. She's a target.
Ripped from her home, thrown into a brutal military camp for the "gifted," Ellie is chained, silenced, and forced to train for the very crown that hunts her kind. Among dwarven brutes, elven snobs, and cruel commanders, survival means playing along. But rage is building. Alliances are cracking. And the fire inside her is waking up.
The Queen calls her cursed.
The soldiers call her criminal.
But if Ellie can survive long enough... they'll all call her revolution.
