Welcome to the desert kingdom of Vargah where in order to live, someone must die.

Her job is to uphold the law, his is to break it.

The kingdom of Vargah has been a stronghold for years, tucked safely behind the wall that separates them from the monsters that roam the west. All that threatens them is the rival kingdom of Novaria. But, with a new king on the throne, a peace treaty by marriage has been arranged and now Vargah sits as the most powerful kingdom in the continent. With their fill of water and astra, gifts from the goddess Celestria, and their enemy kingdom now merged as one, there is nothing Vargah can’t do.

Until their revered leader, King Desmond Orathka, goes missing. The thin thread that holds peace between the rival kingdoms begins to unravel.

Aesira Zeliath, Commander of the Red Order of knights, is strict and rigid, a soldier through and through. When her sister Kamari, the newly appointed queen of Vargah, finds a clue to her missing husband’s whereabouts, Aesira will lead a mission through the uncharted west to find the king. Nothing will stand in her way of finding Desmond and helping her sister. Until a walking distraction joins the crew…

Stone Odega, ex-convict and current operations specialist of the Boneyard District, spends his days on parole fixing the flying ships that are used to transport goods over the wall. While Aesira finds him untrustworthy, he also holds the record for most miles flown in Vargah, making him the perfect pilot for the mission. By nature, he is wary of the law, despite the beauty of one looming commander, and is hesitant to accept the queen’s offer of payment until he stumbles upon a curious entry in the king’s journal…

This single clue may be the answer to an age old puzzle Stone never thought he’d complete. One that would lead them to the doorstep of an ancient city full of myths and magic. The discovery could change his, and the lives of his crew, forever. But solving this puzzle would alter the world as they know it and with a kindling attraction growing between him and the commander, he isn’t sure that’s a risk he’s willing to take.
