High above the citadel, seventeen-year-old Lira feels the first trembling bloom of her wings—an ancient rite that marks her as a guardian of the kingdom. But when the winds carry whispers of forbidden skies beyond the king’s maps, the moment that should define her duty instead ignites a dangerous calling.

In a world where wings guide destiny and every flight carries consequences, Lira must choose between honoring the crown or following the wild pull of the unknown.
