Alburnium is at war. Eighteen-year-old Alyra's joy of being
reunited with her family fades when Prince Issah sends her beloved
friends away on various quests across the kingdom. Allies must be
gathered to stand against the dark ruler, Lord Darnel. The
reclusive dragons happen to be necessary allies. Alyra's friendship
with the young drake, Crystal, offers a slim hope of being heard by
them instead of being burned. Alyra must travel to Drakensburg with
her resentful brother, Ethan, a Messenger, who doesn't trust her, a
prankster Okbold intent on honoring his debt to her, and a unseen
Guardian Instructor, who must teach her how to use the Illuminate's
gift before they reach the dragons' hold. Ethan has the words to
persuade the dragons. Alyra carries the red fruit of the white tree
to present as a peace offering. Until she finds Tarek, beaten and
near death. She must choose between using the fruit to save the man
she loves, or the kingdom she serves.
Alyra, mockingly known as Princess, was captured at an early age by
the evil ruler, Darnel, and brought up in the dark land of Racah.
At the age of seventeen, she considers herself nothing special. She
has no recollection of who she is or where she came from. Her hope
of ever finding freedom dims. Until the messenger arrives. Until he
brings to light the meaning behind the medallion she's kept hidden.
Until she accepts the blinding truth. Now she flees for her life.
Alyra's journey leads her down a narrow road with strange traveling
companions. Together, they encounter a kingdom where nothing is
what it first seems.
