The Old King is dead, and a teenage boy ascends the throne. Claude is the result of an experiment to craft an heir unburdened by mortal worries. An unkillable, perfect monarch. Already, there are whispers of a coup, but the invincible king remains unbothered by them. More concerned he is for the sanity of this beautiful yet eccentric girl his age—an endtowner—who has already just tried to kill him.

Meanwhile, Annamarie Kavesta is cursed to watch the world’s underbelly come into conflict only in her dreams. She further suffers memories of the girl she loved at the orphanage she was once a prisoner of. In these memories, she follows a trail of letters to find her again in the present.

Magic comes alive again for the first time in centuries. A fated reunion and a great conflict collide at once as humanity’s final civilization begins to unravel.
