The Fallen Queen

<p><strong>Imprisoned. Tortured. Forgotten.</strong></p><p></p><p>Kalithea of Elandra should have died where light never reached her-a crownless heir with power too dangerous to contain. But when sacrifice shatters her chains she escapes the prison carved from pain and shadow crossing the border with nothing-no name no crown only the fire that refuses to die in her blood.</p><p></p><p>In a foreign court she carves out an unlikely sanctuary among royalty and rogues. Hunted by the empire that tried to destroy her she gathers a force of liberation-one strong enough to challenge the usurper who stole her kingdom.</p><p></p><p>Before she can reclaim her throne Kal must face a truth greater than vengeance: she was <strong>never</strong> <em>only </em>a weapon.</p><p></p><p>She wasn't born to be saved-she was born to change the world that broke her to burn what was built from her pain and to rise in its ashes. This is not a tale of mercy or miracles. It is the reckoning that begins when a woman refuses to be shaped by anyone but herself.</p>
