Welcome to the Veil Lands, where monsters are the only ones who can save you.
Fable: I came to Ashkar Keep to catalogue dust and serve out my exile Instead, I found a forged signature on a king’s death certificate. Now, I’ve seen too much and my death is imminent.
But I need Prince Zorath. He’s the monster of every court whisper—a creature of raw fury and jagged tusks. He moves like a predator through the shadows of the archives.
I’m no warrior, but I have a scholar’s memory. I’m about to set a kingdom on fire with a single piece of parchment. I was sent here to be silenced. Now, I’m the only one who can name the killers.
Zorath: For three years, I’ve been sharpening my hate until it’s the only thing left of me. I planned to reclaim my father’s throne with the blood of everyone who betrayed us.
Then a small, pale human appeared in the dark with a satchel full of secrets. She thinks justice is stronger than vengeance. She looks at me and sees a man who could be a king.
I was prepared to seize my crown through a massacre. She’s teaching me how to take it with the truth and giving me a reason to survive.
