What happens when those sworn to protect the realm turn against it? A century ago, the legendary Knights fell from grace and took over.
Two decades later, trade routes are compromised, poverty, disease, and deadly drugs are rampant in every part of Feronna, and the Fallen continuously assassinate each other for the throne.
Even though the Fallen may murder each other with no consequence, the wife of an abusive man isn’t.
When Brela had enough of her husband’s abuse, she did what she had to to survive. The problem was that he was one of the highest-ranking officers in the Fallen army.
Even though he deserved it, the Fallen severely punished Brela.
Lonely years passed in the dungeons with only the dead and cruel guards for company. Finally, a young woman named Vassa is tossed into the cell beside her.
Little does Brela realize that befriending her prison companion will lead to her freedom. Or will it?
As if forced into allegiance with a rebellion she doesn’t want to be part of, and helping her friend claim a birthright that could save the realm isn’t bad enough, Brela loathes Vassa’s betrothed. Well, that's what she hopes is the emotion that rises in his imposing presence.
Brela is not ready for this rebellion but doesn’t have a choice. Her options are to stand with them or die. And Brela is what they say she is—a survivor.
