Her only choice is to follow her heartβand find the one thing she needs with the power to help her heal.
The city of Odalia, capital of Lycania and home to the famed White Palace, is the most beautiful place in all of the Empire - at least to the citizens within her walls.

Even as the contenders for Odalia's future
