YA FANTASY

Zyra has always wanted to be special. The reality is, she’s the daughter of a traitor and an outsider, the two things her village tolerates the least. Doomed to be ordinary—or worse, yet—mediocre, Zyra dreams of a world in which she can be better.

When the mystic forces protecting her village from the war-torn outside world fall, Zyra sees a chance to make her dreams a reality. She reaches for them. What could go wrong?
