The past is a lie. The future is a trap. The truth is calling ...

Princess Calista of the First Dynasty - Elite Supreme Warrior and bearer of the Blue Flame - travels beyond her kingdom to uncover the truth behind the Sixth Dynasty's disappearance. But outside Aelburn's protective walls, she enters a broken world ruled by The Kutawala, where the Genapians fight to survive a system designed to crush them. Calista must trust the very power that once tormented her. As the line between duty and destiny blurs, so does her sense of self.

Meanwhile, on Earth, princes and Elite Supreme Warriors Dakarai and Khari arrive in London on a covert assignment. But nothing is as it seems. Shadowed by visions and trailed by a strange woman who speaks in riddles, Dakarai must confront the wounds he's long buried - wounds tied to a deeper truth hidden beneath the surface of their world.

With powerful forces stirring and two worlds colliding, Calista and Dakarai must choose: cling to the stories they've always known, or rise to the truth calling them home.

Some awakenings are chosen. Others are summoned.
