In a prison of silence and stone, a broken girl must learn to fly with wings of ash.
Specimen 7 has no name, no past, and no hope. For years, she has existed in the grey hell of the Somnolence Spire, a prisoner of her own body. Her wings, once capable of flight, are now heavy slabs of petrified stone-a cruel curse that drags her down into the dark. Under the cold, clinical gaze of Maester Volkov, she is nothing more than an experiment to be studied, a broken thing to be measured and scraped for dust.
But the silence of her cell is shattered by a voice through the wall.
Rhazien is a warrior of shadow and starlight, an ancient being betrayed by his own kind and left to rot in the cell next door. He knows the truth of what she is-an Aethel, a creature of immense, dormant power. And he has a plan.
Bound by a secret oath and a shared hatred for their captor, Rhazien teaches her to turn her pain into fuel and her grief into a weapon. But as her power awakens, so does the hunger of the parasitic curse on her back. To escape, she must do the impossible: she must ignite the volcano within her soul and learn to fly with wings of stone.
As the twin suns align for a rare eclipse, the time for stealth is over. Volkov knows their secret, and he is coming to silence them forever. In a final, desperate bid for freedom, Specimen 7 must choose between vengeance and salvation, and discover if a monster made of fractured starlight can ever truly be free.
