Adenne always knew she would become Ruler. It was planned out to the day. A blessing from the Deities, a pilgrimage, a marriage, and a coronation. All within her 21st year. No pressure.

 

But when she walks to the Temple on her birthday, no Deities are there to greet her.

 

Entirely unprecedented, Adenne knows something is wrong. The Light she worships seems to slip further from her every day. Nightmares plague her nights. Now, she is the first in her family to not be blessed. The first to not have her eyes change from brown to gold. The first to fail.

 

She must make a new plan, one where she will find answers—alone. That is until the man who broke her heart and her trust into a million pieces finds out her secret. Intent to help despite their past, Ezrah joins Adenne as they travel across the nation to find out what she did wrong and—hopefully, how to fix it.

 

But this journey seeking answers will only lead to more questions.
