When winter and spring coincide, darkness's heir brings the light of truth and the fall of vanity. Only embers of life can destroy visions of death.
Following the accusation of her sister's murder, five years ago, Elpis was sentenced to a life in the Tower outside of Ursae. Banished, far across the Northern Flatlands, to an eternity of unruly abuse and mind numbing isolation.
Now, broken and beaten, she receives an anonymous gift that will alter her fate forever. Haunted by nightmares of a malevolent goddess, Elpis must unravel the secret of an ancient prophecy and tame the shadows rising within her in order to take back her freedom.
With enemies at every turn, Elpis must choose her allies wisely, and learn that sometimes, freedom may come at a price.
Author's Note and Trigger Warnings
