"ONE WAS BUILT TO END HER. THE OTHER WAS BORN TO BE LOST. TOGETHER, THEY ARE THE ONLY THING THE WORLD'S CREATORS DIDN'T SEE COMING."
A weaver of silver threads. A warden of gold resonance. A choice that will break reality.
In a realm governed by the cold, geometric laws of the High Architects, Elowyn is not a person; she is a resource. As a Truthborn, she is a rare weaver of the silver threads that hold the realms together—a debt to be collected at the moment of her Ascension. Her life was never meant to be her own.
Thorne is a Warden, a lethal instrument of the Origin's will. His purpose was absolute: guard the Truthborn until her time was up, then ensure the harvest was clean. He was never meant to question the blueprint. He was never meant to choose the girl over the world.
Now, as they flee from shadowed bayous into the terrifying heights of the First Lands, the laws of physics are beginning to buckle. Hunted by the faceless Architects and an ancient weaver of deceits known as the Lord of Lies, Elowyn and Thorne have ignited a shared power that defies every law of the universe.
But as the world begins to scrub itself of their "corruption," Elowyn realizes that surviving isn't enough. To save their future, they must journey into the heart of the mountain to confront the beings who wrote their destiny—and find a way to tear the page.
Some truths are worth burning the world for.
