In Lyndoria, truth is power—and power corrupts. Under Garrik's brutal rule, understanding is torn from unwilling minds, leaving scars that run deeper than flesh. For Elara, a gifted healer with the ability to reveal truths as gently as the dawn, life in the shadow of Garrik's regime feels like an act of quiet rebellion.
But when a mysterious stranger stumbles into her village with a secret that could change everything, Elara's gift becomes a target. Clutching a shard of ancient power and hunted by Garrik's forces, Elara and her unlikely ally, Kael, must journey into the heart of Lyndoria's most dangerous secrets—the Whispering Woods and the fabled Shadowglass.
As Garrik's corruption spreads, twisting truth into a weapon that breaks reality itself, Elara must decide: will she hide from the power within her, or embrace it to reshape their world? The Shadowglass holds the key, but unlocking its secrets could come at the ultimate price.
A lyrical fantasy novel about the power of gentle truth and the strength of chosen understanding. Perfect for readers who love intricate magic systems, philosophical themes, and the triumph of wisdom over force.
