More than a century has passed since Liliath crept into the empty
sarcophagus of Saint Marguerite, fleeing the Fall of Ystara. But
she emerges from her magical sleep still beautiful, looking no more
than nineteen, and once again renews her single-minded quest to be
united with her lover, Palleniel, the archangel of Ystara. A
seemingly impossible quest, but Liliath is one of the greatest
practitioners of angelic magic to have ever lived, a genius at
making icons to summon angels, and supremely adept in forcing them
to do her bidding. Liliath already knew that most of the
inhabitants of Ystara died from the Ash Blood plague or were
transformed into beastlings, and she herself led the survivors who
fled into neighbouring Sarance. Now she learns that angels shun the
Ystaran's descendents. If they are touched by angelic magic, their
blood will become ashes, or they will turn into beastlings. They
are known as Refusers, and can only live the most lowly lives. But
Liliath cares nothing for the descendants of her people, save how
they can serve her. It is four young Sarancians who fix her
interest, for they are the key to her quest: Simeon, a studious
doctor-in-training; Henri, a dedicated fortune hunter; Agnez, an
adventurous musketeer cadet; and Dorotea, an icon-maker and scholar
of angelic magic. The four feel a strange, immediate kinship from
the moment they meet, but do not know why, or suspect their
importance. Only Liliath knows their secret, and she draws them in
to her complex plot, just as she manipulates Queen Louisa and her
musketeers; King Ferdinand and his guards; Cardinal Duplessis and
her pursuivants; and the Refuser Night King Biscaray and his
criminal gangs. All become pawns in Liliath's grand scheme to
fulfill her destiny and be united with the love of her life. No
matter the cost to everyone else.
