In a land of bottomless vales and great stony protrusions, two separate kingdoms are at war, one started far before any of the honored elders can remember, and all mentionings in the histories have long since crumbled to dust . Though a treaty has been signed less than a year previously, skirmishes have arisen and the war is destined to flare up once more. The W'rathe : Dark of eye and hair, one green eye, one muddy, quick of wit and sharp of tongue. They are pitted against the Ae'the: Nearly giants in stature, long flax-golden hair, piercing blue eyes, brash in thoughts and bold of arm. The War is brutal and bloody, carnage being accepted as a way of life. Both the W'rathe and the Ae'the have demanded that the surrounding country's offer aid, lest they become enemies of war. But when a force of darkness arises, seeking out three magical pendants which can grant the user nearly infinite power, bitter enemies must forge alliances to stop it, lest the world around them crumble in their disunity. This novel is told from all perspectives, on both sides of the war. The characters are many: A broken assassin, an adventuring woodsmen, a slave to his own mother, and more. Join this epic journey and learn that there is always at least two sides to every story, and that the line between hero and villain is sharp enough to draw blood.

As long as people believed that there was a division between the Gifted and the non-Gifted, that one was superior to the other, I wasn't done. As long as there were kings on thrones to reinforce the idea that people like Porter and Briar and everyone else I cared about were unworthy of this world, I wasn't done. "And then," I continued, a resolution forming in my mind. "I'm going to destroy those six thrones." ********************************************** Wren Heatherfield has been through hell and back, surviving the deadly trials of the Garner and claiming the title of Garner Champion. However, her fight is far from over, with the real challenges only just beginning. Adjusting to her new life in the Ember Court with her insufferable enemy-turned-friend Kesserian Cinis, Wren is forced to face the truth of how close the six courts of Naturian are to a civil war, with Nox and Wren leading the opposing sides. But the fight for allies she can trust might turn out to be just as hard as her internal fight: coming to terms with her true identity. With the loyalties and beliefs of her past and present self at war with each other, Wren must decide who she is and what she stands for if she has any hope of surviving this upcoming war. Plagued by nightmares and trauma from her time in the Garner, Wren must find a way to keep moving forward. With the weight of a crumbling nation on her shoulders, Wren has one chance to fix the injustices that plague Naturian and achieve her dreams of toppling tyranny, but the alluring power of the throne might prove too intoxicating for even her to resist. A fight for her loved ones. A fight for the oppressed. A fight to save the remaining good in Naturian. The chains have been released. Now the real fight begins.
