Description
A DESIGNER...
Shylah
She learned to distill power from nature. No one warned her nature could fight back.
A TRAVELER...
Trulian
She thought she could outmaneuver fate. She never expected to become its pawn.
A PROTECTER...
Durmad
In a kingdom ruled by lies and shadows, doing what's right might cost him everything.
EACH FIGHTING TO OUTRUN THE RUIN BEHIND THEM.
When fate tightens its grip, how far will three hearts go to break free?
In a kingdom ruled by a secretive and manipulative Queen, two sisters struggle to survive under the weight of rare and dangerous abilities that bind them to power they do not fully understand. Trulian, gifted with the ability to travel through time and consciousness, is driven by visions of her sister's future suffering and risks her own body and sanity to change what she has seen. Shylah, an apprentice elixir designer, endures brutal control under the master designer while discovering that her talent for distillation extends far beyond what she's been led to believe, allowing her to draw, shape, and amplify essence itself.
As the Queen disappears from the capital and a fanatical sect known as the Maveth is quietly introduced into the realm, political tension and hidden agendas tighten around the sisters. Trulian attempts to warn allies across time, while Shylah's experiments with the rare and volatile cyanelle plant reveal both healing potential and dangerous consequences. Bound by love, sacrifice, and secrecy, the sisters must navigate manipulation, abuse of power, and the cost of loyalty as forces move to weaponize magic, memory, and the future itself.
