In Maijev, the practice of magicโand slaveryโis forbidden. But after Livenaโs wind magic is exposed and she gets saddled with a truth curse, she flees from home with an ex mage hunter as her guide.
His plan for her is simpleโsheโll swallow her distaste for the new regionโs magical gods, heโll get her to a temple where she can get the curse removed, and together theyโll figure out how to control her magic so she can return home.
But the coastal city where they arrive is a nightmare.
Magic runs rampant and its citizens have no concept of equality among fellow mortals.
When Livena spots a cruel lord taunting children with slave collars, her untamed magic sends him flying across the busy street. Unfortunately, he recognizes her guide in the aftermath, and they have a less-than-cordial history.
After her guide goes missing, itโs clear he needs rescue.
But trying to navigate the magic-infested city? Livena canโt save him alone.
Reluctantly, she enlists the help of a shapeshifting rogue. The rogueโs plan involves a lot more magic, trickery, and trouble, than Livena wants.
But if the rogue can help Livena wield her wind magic without telling her guideโs enemies more than they need to know, Livena might not only rescue her guide, she might overcome the cityโs apathetic streets.
