Heir Apparent. Scion. Daughter of Chaos.
Verity has no intention of following the path her parents have laid out for her and no wish for either the political or spiritual power that is within her grasp. Instead, she searches for signs of what she fears the mostā that the ancient enemy her ancestor banished is once again stirring. But, fate seems determined to intervene when her parents declare it is time for her to finally claim what is hers by divine right and choose her first Sentinel.
Thief. Convict. Imposter.Ā
Orion has three months left on his sentence in the mines, and all he can hope for is the chance to survive until his time is up. Instead, he finds himself drawn into danger by political and otherworldly forces when, against all tradition and logic, he is chosen as the Heir Apparentās Sentinel.
Together, they make the unlikeliest heroes the Empire of Evren has ever seen, but when the Forsaken return, they prove to be the best hope to stop the creatures. The question is, are they strong enough to stop the Paragon who sent them?
