Synopsis
Aria is trapped. Locked away in isolation in a strange forest, without memories of who she is or where she came from, Aria fights to make sense of the small world around her. With only her name written on a piece of paper, and a wolf for company, the fight for freedom feels bleak as loneliness creeps in. Her only escape comes when she falls asleep each night to dream of him. Casen is haunted. The prestige General of Landora, Casen Alvar, is haunted by nightmares about a girl in the woods he doesn’t know and can never save. These visions chase him from sleep, haunting his waking world until he feels a pull leading deep into the woods outside the safety of the city walls. A rebellion is brewing. Ancient enemies are stirring, with whispers of another war surfacing. The fate of the world hangs in the balance as Casen and Aria fight to untangle the hidden web of secrets about who they are. Aria’s stolen memories are the key to unlocking who she is meant to be. The secrets of the System force Casen to face the dark truth about his world and which side he will choose to fight on.
