The fight for power begins and ends in flux. Myraza is an innocent in a wounded era when magic is forbidden. Her power to alter time sets her as a tool for some, an object of desire for others, and a cursed beast to the confused. She is rescued from an isolated tower only to find herself wishing she had never left. Reality is difficult when one chooses not to bask in ignorance. A power struggle occurred hundreds of years in the past that created a flux in time, threatening to devour life. Events unfold faster than Myraza can respond, and she is soon on the road, searching for the truth behind the flux while jumping from one dangerous event to the next, never understanding her purpose or who her true enemy is. And she trusts everyone. The answers are shrouded in darkness and saturated with blood. The world is in peril, and Myraza begins to fear that she may be both the cause and the solution.
