A world divided by superstitions and lies…
Two boys marked by the prejudices that bind them…
In the world of Aredyrah, things are not what they seem. An ancient
Purge has plunged the island into darkness, dividing its cultures by geography and fear. Dayn lives in the northernmost region of Kirador and knows nothing of the great city-state of Tearia far to the
south. All he knows is this—the Kiradyns are the only survivors of their god’s fiery wrath, and he looks nothing like them. Ruairi, a prince destined for greatness, resents his Tearian obligations,
longing for a life he can never hope to have. When tragedy takes his beauty as well as his name, he sets out for answers from the deities who have betrayed him. Both boys long for acceptance in societies
that cling to religious ideals, but when they cross paths, Dayn and Ruairi discover some unwelcome truths: not only are they bound to one another by blood and prophecy, but the teachings they have been
raised on are nothing more than lies. Will they reveal what they have learned, risking rebellion in their world and further persecution for themselves? Or will they seek a life of normalcy, something
they have never known, but have always longed for?
