Blood Over Bright Haven
Meet Sciona, an orphan since she was four. She's always felt like she has more to prove than her classmates. For two decades, she's poured everything into studying magic, driven by this crazy ambition to do the impossible: be the first woman to crack into the High Magistry. But when she finally claws her way up there, the challenges keep coming. Her new colleagues are dead set on letting her know she's not welcome, starting with sticking her with a janitor instead of a qualified lab assistant.
What Sciona and her peers don't realize is that her quiet assistant used to be more than just a janitor. Before he was cleaning up after mages, Thomil was a nomadic hunter from beyond Tiran's magical barrier. Ten years ago, he survived a dangerous journey that wiped out his family. Now, working for a highmage, he sees a chance to figure out the forces that destroyed his tribe, kicked him out of his homeland, and keep the Tiranish folks in power.
As they navigate their rocky relationship, this mage and outsider uncover an ancient secret that could shake up the world of magic - unless it gets them killed first. Sciona has always been about chasing the truth, but how much is one truth worth when the fate of civilization is hanging in the balance?
