, kingdoms of color rule their lands with strict laws and practices. Alchemy is forbidden, and no magic exists.

Ruby, a headstrong, seventeen-year-old princess, longs to be the next ruler of the Red Kingdom. However, societal standards reject her, for only males can lead. Because of this, her younger brother Crimson will take her dream and her place on the throne one day.

When Ruby becomes blessed with the Prem, a mysterious power that allows one to see the future through dreams, she believes she may finally have a chance of showing what she is worth. However, her excitement for her newfound importance and power is short-lived when the Prem starts to reveal a dark and cursed future.

Crimson has no interest in the throne and the shackles that come with it. However, his fate and the fates of his whole family start to intertwine when they discover a glowing stone that pulsates with a power they can't describe.

When it falls upon the shoulders of book-smart Vermillion to figure things out, the youngest prince struggles to come to an understanding about this mysterious stone. That doesn't stop him from trying though, as his curiosity leads him down a new route, one shrouded in mystery.

Will Ruby and her siblings be able to alter history and save their family from the forthcoming darkness, or will this turmoil tear them apart?
