Their faith divides them. But their fate will entwine them. Tensions are rising between the bordering nations of Micacao and Niekalarah. The Governor of Micacao sees no path for diplomacy. The inevitable outcome: War. For guaranteed success, he sends his Private Guard, Ilian, on a mission to find the legendary warrior of the glass sword. Ilian travels to the mountainous regions of the rural south and finds the warrior in a laborer named Cordaya. As destruction and devastation rain down on the villages and local communities, Cordaya, the warrior of the glass sword, is their only line of defense from these attacks. She refuses to leave her people without protection. Ilian, knowing he cannot return without her acceptance to meet with the Governor, must devise a new plan. For the interim, he finds residence and employment with none other than Cordaya's adoptive parents. But more than the attacks occur on these lands as evil spreads beneath their feet, racing through the roots of life. The gods grow resentful. With enemy mercenaries and the gods against them, Ilian and Cordaya must search for the answer to save their nation and perhaps humanity itself. As a message from the gods intertwines their every step to the fate of the world, Ilian will be forced to reflect on his faith and everything he has ever learned.

The monster within led to her exile. The monster she's become will free her. Botalia Ulton, 24yo daughter to highly revered Scholars, lives out her exile on an island, isolated from society. Despite being unable to partake in the scientific community she once dreamed of joining, Botalia conducts experiments on the island and works everyday to train in the practice of life force. Her isolation ends when Tanten Flynn, an ex-Council member of the Magistrate Association, visits her on the island. He tells her of the schism occurring within the Magistrate Association. The news calls it a 'War of Science versus Magic.' He offers her an invitation: Break the exile to form an alliance and assist in leading his team to victory. Botalia denies his request, not wishing to work alongside a group she deems corrupt. Tanten's orphaned son arrives on the island a few days later, begging to be the apprentice of Botalia. Despite the odd coincidence, Botalia accepts. When assassins and an old friend-turned-convict, sneak onto the island, Botalia realizes there is much more to the puzzle than she originally suspected. Botalia must come to terms with a past she attempted to bury, learn to control her life force and the beast within her, and break the terms of her exile to protect the very association that sentenced her, even if it results in her own death.
