Once a gifted alchemist fighting alongside the Resistance, Helena Marino is now a prisoner with little memory of the events that changed her life forever. The war has ended, her allies have fallen, and the corrupt rulers of Paladia now control a kingdom where necromancy reigns and fear is law.

Although Resistance records paint Helena as an insignificant healer, her unexplained memory loss raises dangerous questions. What if the missing pieces of her past hold the key to the Resistance's final secret?

To unlock the truth hidden within her mind, Helena is placed under the watch of the feared High Reeve, one of the most powerful necromancers in Paladia.
