When Ava accidentally let her guards down once, she finds herself unwittingly thrown in an overcrowded chariot heading to the most ruthless prison in Lire. Unfeeling about her little misstep, the General ruling this oppressing land offers her a reluctant choice: Either obey or undergo an abundance of suffering. Being branded a criminal was never part of her destiny. But now she's got to live with it-worse she has to act like one. That is until something much bigger than this come crashing down on her. The true challenge might not be what is waiting for her outside, but what is roaming within... Originally wanting to stay in the shadows, she is enmeshed in a game of lies, schemes and even... love. More than ever, she'll need to fight for what she wants, or she'll loose everything she holds dearly. But in this world where magic overrules everything, can a mere human change anything?
