But when the night of the coup arrived and the halls of the palace ran red with the blood of the imperial family, the unthinkable happened. Instead of striking you down, Alaric—the man who slaughtered your masters—spared your life. Now, you find yourself trapped in a tower of shimmering gold, a bird in a gilded cage where the scent of expensive incense struggles to mask the copper tang of fresh blood.
