In her tiny world, Daphne carries a secret that threatens her sanity. Unbeknownst to her, it isn't the only threat she has to face.

*********

Daphne Ardoria has lived a relatively ordinary life, away from most of civilization and within the throes of magic and family secrets. But when a series of encounters threaten to unravel everything, even her own skeletons are dragged out of the closet.

Exposed and disoriented, she embarks on a journey with an unlikely ally to search for the truth; her greatest yet most inevitable mistake.

Pirates, thieves, swindlers, envious classmates, and obsessed princes become the least of her worries as she finds herself in the middle of a power struggle among the Seven Great Powers, worst of all, with questions that seemingly lack answers.

Will she fall prey to attacks from the light and the shadows, or;

Will she persist and prove herself a Daughter of Ardor?
