Eimarille is not content to be used as a puppet to bring Daijal to the Ashion throne she has set out to take that throne for herself. Particularly as Daijal is ruthless in their methods, coming up with ever increasing horrors that threaten everyone in Maricol. The Clockwork Brigade in Ashion fights to protect their country from the Daijalans, but their network of spies can only do so much. With the Daijalans determined to gain control of the empty Ashion throne, danger is around every turn. What Caris doesn’t know is that she too is an heir to the Ashion throne, the baby no one know existed and who has been kept hidden from all. She is a strong, determined woman with a secret affinity for magic she knows she must keep hidden. Now, Caris Dhemlan is a skilled inventor, having a way with crystals that few others do. Blaine carried that baby out of the city with the help of a Star god, placing her with a foster family to raise. The queen had recently had a baby, one no one knew was born. He was ten years old when the Inferno came and he helped smuggle out a secret. The two have given their hearts to one another, even as they struggle to have their lives and their loyalties align.īlaine Westergard comes from a family that always protected the Ashion throne.
When Soren meets the crown prince of Solaria, Vanya Sa’Liandel, the two form an unexpected bond, a Warden and the future ruler of Solaria. What Soren doesn’t remember is that as a young child, he was rescued from the Inferno and brought to the Wardens to raise, but like Eimarille, he is Rourke royalty and an heir to the Ashion throne. Soren has always felt a draw to his magic, a burn inside him he has tried to ignore.
The zombie-like creatures are an ever-present threat, monsters who could easily decimate an entire town. Soren was raised as a Warden, one of the elite team of fighters charged with protecting Maricol from the revenants. But while most thought she was the only Rourke child to survive the Inferno, there were two more. Eimarille Rourke, the ten-year-old Ashion princess, was taken in by the Daijal king and raised as their own, setting up a future joining of their nations.
With the queen dead and the city in ruins, it opened the door for neighboring Daijal to begin to attempt to take over Ashion, expanding their influence over the continent. When the capital city of Ashion burned in the Inferno, destroying the city and all those with magic in their blood, it seemed to be the end of the Rourke royal family line. There has never been an easy peace among the countries of Maricol.
