Among her clan of powerful trees, she was the most fragile-made of glass, stunning yet delicate. Destined to be the next Goddess of Nature, she longed for freedom, not responsibility. Spoiled by her grandparents, she ran away, seeking escape in the mortal realm. There, she indulged in risky adventures, including gambling with mortals, until she lost everything. As the gamblers chased her, she transformed into her glass tree form to hide, thinking she had escaped.

That was, until she encountered Sivan, a mysterious and powerful immortal who saw right through her disguise. He recognized her as someone who seemed to have done bad deeds and wronged others, someone trying to flee from the consequences and when she tried to run again, she ended up looking like a tree awkwardly running away on two legs. A glassy mess of branches and leaves flying everywhere. 

He accidentally plucked one of her delicate glass leaves while chasing her. Without it, her core started to weaken, and her magic lost its stability. She feared she might never be able to return to her true form again.

Sivan, however, believed she was no simple tree-he suspected she was a demon in disguise, a creature of evil. Without hesitation, he imprisoned her in a jar designed to contain demons. In his eyes, she was just another dark force to be locked away.

Ray is low on time, luck, and hope; his only chance is an artifact that may not even exist. But upon meeting Landon, Ray is beginning to believe he might find all four. ***** Cambions are doomed to tragedy. They are weak, sickly creatures that rarely live to see their twentieth year. Ray refuses to resign himself to that fate. Upon learning of the Crimson Sheath-an artifact capable of preserving his life-Ray is prepared to fight, steal, and kill to get his hands on it. He is not prepared for Landon. Landon is an orphan with no memories of his parents, the only inheritance left to him a dagger, sleeping in a crimson sheath. Though he has no love of bloodshed and no use for a dagger, Landon isn't about to let Ray take his only link to his forgotten history, even if that means following the cambion past the edge of the world and into the shadow beyond.
