A Curse to Break. A Fate to Unravel. A Soul on the Edge of Ruin.
Haunted by an ancient curse, Kharis teeters on the brink of madness. To break her curse and rescue her sister, she must navigate the treacherous realms of the ancient immortals to reach the Akumi king, outwit the cunning Aghet Mendi, and confront the truth that Itzu-her fiercest protector-has long concealed from her. If she fails, it will not only be her end but also the end of the world.

And when she finally stands before the Akumi king, will he offer her freedom-or ruin?
