We present in audio format the third book of this cycle.

Power often forces those to whom it is given to do things that aren’t very honorable. Power either changes a person, or compels them to reveal their true face. In an empire where clergy and mages fight for power, a childless ruler dies—and his widow strangely disappears. That sparks a whole storm of intrigue around possible claimants to the throne. Artanna de Toll is one of the trump cards of the Shano house, but she’s far from the only one.

She is asked to prepare her nephew for ruling, and meanwhile, according to the plan, she herself must take his place.

However, someone named Medyak comes to her. His daughter, whose veins also carry the blood of the ruler, turned out to be a mage—but the gift she received takes root very painfully and brings monstrous pain. Can Artanna help and, at the same time, survive in the web of schemes surrounding the struggle for power?

The answer is in the audiobook.
