Synopsis

Once upon a time:
Once upon a time, a young woman awakens bound to the back of a horse, her memories gone save for her name, carried toward a life of slavery in a world she does not recognise.

Every day:
Every day, as her magic grows stronger and her understanding of herself deepens, safety becomes an illusion, forcing her to survive by instinct while searching for meaning in a life shaped by deception.

Until one day:
Until one day, she realises she is not alone, that her twin brother, her sister, and a scattered found family exist somewhere beyond her reach, and that finding them may be the key to reclaiming what was stolen from them all.

Because of that:
Because of that, two men come to stand beside her, one offering light, steadiness, and the promise of who she once was, the other mirroring the shadows she carries and the woman she is becoming, and through them, she begins to unravel a devastating truth: even the divine are driven by love, loss, and the need to belong.

Because of that:
Because of that, she discovers she is not of this world at all, and that it was mortals, not gods, who betrayed what they loved, seizing divine power for themselves and now hunting her family to keep it.

Until finally:
Until finally, she begins to understand that the world does not need saving — the gods do — and that it is their refusal to value humanity that places everything at risk.
