When the sun kingdom of Lumenór falls to shadow, a princess and her sworn knight vanish into the trees.
Princess Elleanor “Lia” Solarys, youngest heir to a dynasty of sunlight and glass, was never meant to rule: she preferred gardens over thrones, herbs over politics. But on the night of the Solstice Ball, the light of Lumenór shatters. Betrayed from within, the kingdom burns under a crimson sun, and her brother, Crown Prince Adrian, orders her to flee.
By her side stands Captain Katherine “Kate” Vale Solbrandt, fierce and unyielding, sworn to protect Lia even at the cost of her life. Together they escape through the burning gardens, carrying the last spark of Lumenór’s light into a world already dimming.
As they hide among the common folk, Lia learns to live as someone ordinary: a girl of soil and sun, not of crystal and gold. But as love blooms where duty once stood, Lia must choose: stay hidden, or reclaim the light that was always hers to bear.
