      <image:caption>Vylaena Azrel has one goal in life: lift the Curse set upon her by the goddess Ikna, dooming her to feel others' pain as her own. Living alone in the haunted Elderwood just outside the city of Cyair, Vylaena keeps well away from civilization—until the day a mysterious solicitor arrives at her doorstep to make her an offer that will change her life. Unwillingly entangled in matters of state, Vylaena is brought to the Cyair Palace to play bodyguard to a newly-arrived foreign ambassador. Bound to the city and annoyed at her predicament, she endures her new position with grim acceptance. But the post proves more complicated than expected; despite her efforts to remain detached, Vylaena is forced to contend with the mass disappearances plaguing the kingdom, a war looming to the south, and a dark past that refuses to stay where she left it. As dangerous forces converge around her, Vylaena has difficult choices to make—choices that will not only determine her own future, but the fate of the entire world.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Vylaena thought lifting her Curse would solve all her problems. But without any pain to drive them out, she is finally forced to examine her own feelings—especially the troublesome ones developing for a certain Galiffan warrior. As the Desert Kingdoms push their advance and the four unlikely friends struggle to patch together a fractured Enserion, the goddesses issue a grave warning: return the power stolen from them, or face the annihilation of their world.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>With a collection of strange alliances and a new king and queen on the Enserionite throne, it is time to take the fight to the Deserts and defend Aethryl from a false god. But killing an immortal isn’t a simple task, especially when Vylaena is faced with an impossible choice: allow the destruction of her world, or embrace her full power and lose everything she holds dear.</image:caption>
