Just weeks after Jaron has taken the throne, an assassination attempt forces him into a deadly situation. Rumors of a coming war are winding their way between the castle walls, and Jaron feels the pressure quietly mounting within Carthya. Soon, it becomes clear that deserting the kingdom may be his only hope of saving it. But the farther Jaron is forced to run from his identity, the more he wonders if it is possible to return home again? Or will he have to sacrifice his own life in order to save his kingdom?
