The Sun Reaper's Curse

The Kunagian Empire has languished under a curse for five long years, rendering their women, their soil, and their creatures infertile. The pressing question lingers: Who wrought this curse upon them, and to what end? All that remains clear is the imminent specter of war looming over the realm. As the Empire teeters on the brink of collapse, desperation forces them to raid neighboring territories, pillaging villages and abducting women and children in a frantic bid for survival. Amidst this turmoil, allies are scarce, and aid is nowhere to be found.

Irys Farwynd, a clever huntress with a knack for survival, cloaks herself in secrecy, haunted by the shadows of her own dark past. But she cannot remain hidden indefinitely—not with the weight of her lineage, not when the legacy of a fading dynasty courses through her veins. She stands as the last sorceress of the realm, the final ember of a dying fire, and soon the world will echo with her name. Only she holds the power to break the empire's curse, to breathe life back into the rival nation. 

Summoned to the capital of her kingdom by the royal family, she becomes a pawn in their game of power. Entrusted with the task of mastering her magic to preserve a precarious peace, Irys must navigate her abilities and learn control. With claws on one side and thorns on the other, Irys finds herself entangled in the unfolding conflict, unsure where her true allegiance lies.

This is a tale of love, betrayal, duty, and vengeance.
