Blurb

"Takes places 400 years after the Inda stories, carrying forward some threads: Emras is on trial for her life, and this is her testimony.
Princess Lasva, justly famed across the continent for her style, lives for love. Unfortunately, princesses do not have the luxury of choosing love over politics. Thus she finds herself on the other side of the continent, newly wed to the prince of Marloven Hesea, a kingdom very, very different from Colend, her homeland. Emras, Lasva's personal scribe, is ordered by Colend's queen to watch for signs of Norsunder's magic, as there are dire rumors about Marloven Hesea. But Emras knows nothing about magic, and the mages she consults scold her for not going through proper channels.
So when Emras finds a willing tutor, and Lasva tries to use Colendi diplomacy to avert Marloven war, life gets really complicated. That's before the real threat emerges."^[1]
