On Princess Serah Valeris's eighteenth birthday, the man she loves murders her father and seizes the throne.
Hunted across Veloria, Serah escapes with Raven Ashbourne, her fiercely loyal childhood bodyguard, who would bleed before letting her fall. But surviving the coup is only the beginning.
Beyond the palace walls, Serah discovers a kingdom she was never allowed to see. Villages are starving. Children are bound by cruel contracts. The Council rules through fear, while old crimes remain buried beneath the crown she once believed represented peace.
To uncover the truth behind Kaito's rebellion, Serah must gather four legendary Dragon Warriors connected to an ancient power and confront what her father, her mother, and the man who broke her heart were hiding from her.
Because Kaito may have betrayed the crown.
But the crown betrayed Veloria first.
Now Serah must decide what justice means when everyone she has ever loved is guilty of something.
