WIP INTRO: The City of Light
The Kingdom of Valgus is in crisis. In the last month, nineteen people have died under mysterious circumstances. The disease is swift, and the death is painful. It is like nothing they have ever seen.
Alev is the Royal Advisor's son, and the next in line to succeed him. When his father is taken ill by this mysterious disease, he embarks on an investigation that will reveal a shocking evil in the heart of his home. In the meantime, he must choose between doing his duty to his father and country, and living the life he has always wanted.
Noctora is the last surviving heir to the Valgan throne, but to her it seems the world has fallen apart. Her brother, Listrik, Heir Apparent to the Crown of Valgus, and her parents, the King and Queen, have all been taken by the illness that has no cure. Young and ill-equipped, she must battle with grief and navigate the choppy waters of courtly affairs in order to continue her family's long reign.
Lucius has always had his life prepared for him, but he has always wanted more. An explorer and adventurer at heart, he tests the limits of Valgus, until one day he breaks a rule he cannot come back from. Hunted as a traitor to his country, Lucius must come to terms with the fact that nothing will ever be the same, and he can never come home.
Lysia is just starting to deal with the loss of Listrik, when she is forced, too, to reckon with the loss of Lucius. As part of her duties, she is ordered to hunt him down and arrest him. But, loyal as she is to the Kingdom of Valgus, can she truly bring herself to doom her childhood friend to the hangman's noose?
