Synopsis: At ten years old, the Heir of Jasad flees a massacre that claims her entire family. By fifteen, she buries her first body. Now, at twenty, Sylvia's third attempt at reclaiming her home is running out of time. Nizahl's armies have devastated Jasad and outlawed magic across the remaining four kingdoms, but Sylvia's magic is adept at deception. When the Nizahl Heir, Arin, tracks Jasadis to Sylvia's village, her carefully crafted quiet life unravels. Arin, known for his cold calculation and hatred for magic, offers Sylvia a dangerous escape: compete as Nizahl's Champion in the Alcalah tournament for immunity from persecution. In return, Arin will use her as bait to capture the Jasadis he hunts. To win the deadly Alcalah, Sylvia must collaborate with Arin to unleash her trapped magic, all while evading his efforts to expose her identity. As their connection deepens, Sylvia realizes that winning her freedom as Nizahl's Champion jeopardizes any chance of reuniting Jasad under her rule. The scorched kingdom is stirring, forcing Sylvia to choose between the life she has built and the one she was born to lead. Specifications:
