In the ancient kingdom of Veylor, storms are more than just weather-they are omens, harbingers of fate. Astraea Blue has spent her life on the outskirts of court life, living in the shadow of her family's tragic past. The Blue family, once powerful and wealthy, lost everything when a mysterious curse unleashed the violent storms known as the Crying Lightning. For centuries, the kingdom has feared the storm, its haunting presence tied to the downfall of rulers and the rise of chaos. Unlike the legends that surround her ancestors, Astraea has no magic or royal blood-only the remnants of her family's wealth and a deep-seated connection to the storm. When strange phenomena begin to plague the kingdom and the Crying Lightning returns fiercer than ever, Astraea uncovers an ancient prophecy linking her to the curse that shattered her world. As the last living heir of the Blue family, she must unravel the secrets of her lineage to break the storm's hold before it consumes everything. Teaming up with a rogue scholar and a warrior hiding his own dark secrets, Astraea embarks on a perilous journey to the forgotten lands, seeking the source of the Crying Lightning. As betrayals mount and enemies close in, she realizes that the storm isn't just a curse-it's the price of a long-forgotten deal, and the sky won't stop weeping until it is repaid in full. In the final hour, as the kingdom teeters on the edge of destruction, Astraea faces a choice: sacrifice herself to end the curse, or let the storm rage on.All Rights Reserved
