The kingdom of Cansere is on the brink of war. Young men are conscripted from their homes, and a royal decree from the queen has made healing the only legal form of craftlock.

But when the leaders of her world claim her as a bride, the illusion shatters. Guided by heresy and servitude, Mira uncovers the truth beneath her holy markings. She is not a leader; she is a vessel.
