TheAllegoryOfPain
In Val Karuun, shadows listen, statues whisper, and some bloodlines are never truly free.
Rana is an ashirid with a secret written into her bones...a mark that should have faded generations ago. When she survives an attack that no one can explain, she catches the attention of shadows, enemies, and something much more malicious.
Drawn to the secrets of her father and the world, Rana must embark on a journey to learn more about him and her fuzzy past.
But destiny is watching her and time is not her friend.
And what awakens in Rana will change more than just her life,
it will change the balance of the whole world and everyone in it for better or for worst.
