Veil of Embers

After losing her entire family-her mother in a fire, her brother in an attack, and her father to a betrayal that painted him as a villain-Jean is left alone in a world that hates her. Only a few believe the truth: that her father, Decalane, died a hero while the world's glory was stolen by Solaris, the golden son of the League.

Now, seven years later, Jean is no longer the lost child crying in the rain. Hidden away in the wilderness with her only friend Derel and his kind-hearted aunt Greta, she has trained, grown, and prepared. But revenge takes more than strength-it takes patience, strategy, and sacrifice.

Her next step? Infiltrate Solar Academy, the elite institution run by the very organization that framed her father. With a new identity and a hidden past, Jean steps into a world of powerful students, corrupt heroes, and secrets that could shatter the kingdom.

But as she walks the line between justice and vengeance, she must decide: will she destroy the world that wronged her-or become strong enough to change it?

A story of loss, identity, betrayal, and the fire that remains when everything else is gone.
