Something is amiss. The strings of Fate are being cut, the Realms are being crossed and the creatures of Zioll are invading Ola. And Jobina wants nothing to do with it.
For the last twelve years, she has lived life dodging the strings and slipping past kismet and she couldn't be happier. That is until Fate finally grabs a hold of her, placing her in the one cage she can't escape; the gates of St. Ilimys Academy. No matter, she will just become forgettable until even Fate struggles with remembering her. And it works, for a day. However, unfortunately, those who were meant to begin to notice her and she is caught within the web of others' destiny threads.
Even Jobina, someone who could shirk something as transcendental as Fate, can't seem to escape the watchful and cynical eyes of the Reincarnates---students showing more strength and power than any Chosen in centuries and said to be the Blesséd Eight rebirthed---and she's not sure how much her cowardly heart can take. As she is intrinsically woven between the fates of each of these Reincarnates, she finds herself falling further into the underbelly of not just Ola, but the other Realms. Darker forces have their own black strings knotted throughout Fate and those influences are getting harder and harder for even Jobina to ignore.
She must reconnect the strings, rebuild the boundaries of the Realms, and reset the balance that has been lost.
But will she?
