In the explosive conclusion to the Orïsha saga, Zélie and her allies face their most terrifying enemy yet: the Skulls, foreign invaders who wield bloodmetal and seek to enslave the magic of the land. With King Baldyr determined to harness Zélie’s power during the Blood Moon to ascend as a god, the fate of Orïsha hangs in the balance. Imprisoned, tortured, and scarred by loss, Zélie must learn to reclaim her strength, even as the medallion fused to her body threatens to consume her. Alongside her brother Tzain, the exiled princess Amari, and the conflicted king Inan, she must rally new allies, confront betrayal, and embrace the full cost of leadership. Both epic and intimate, this novel is a story of resilience, sacrifice, and the fragile hope of renewal in a world scarred by war and oppression.
