The elves' only hope? A desperate plan forged by a fanatical Warder with questionable motives.

Elliah, a magicless elf cursed by prophecy, holds the key to either salvation or destruction. Forced into an uneasy alliance with the Warder, the elves must navigate deadly dragon attacks and unrelenting persecution while searching for an army with the power to strike back.

Their only chance lies with the Alluvium, masters of Fire Magic. But when a rival prophecy surfaces, everything they believe unravels. Which future is true? Who can they trust? And will any of it matter when the dragons come, seeking vengeance for that which the Warder has stolen?

Dragons collect their dead.

Fire lies.

Can Elliah, an outcast elf, bereft of magic, defy fate and save a dying world? Or will she only hasten its demise?
