This is not how I die. A truth every aqueduct technician knows. Not here, not like this. When I go out, the light will come with me ... No one will mourn me. They won't even know I'm gone ... Unless I'm Selected. Then I'll have a purpose. My life will have meaning.
Aqueduct technician Sage Woods is summoned in the middle of the night to assist with repairs to the foundations of the Palace of Justice. An attack by the rejected rebels beyond the city walls has temporarily crippled the city of Skau. The Principalities, which serve to enact the edicts of the goddess Ma'at, rush to undo the damage and interrupt future attacks.
Ejected from the city walls, Sage's efforts to save the palace from destruction may lead to her own. As the day of her Selection approaches, could the appearance of an alluring, dark stranger be the key to her survival? Or must she lay low to avoid political machinations that risk her expulsion.
As chaos mounts around her, Sage fights for her place in the Principalities.
Which palace will she serve?
