The Semirian Empire is on the brink of war. In such a situation, mages and mitors are ready to forget their disagreements and fight side by side. Elyra Thyøri would join them as well, but her path is different. She knows that the only force capable of standing against their enemies is an ancient, cursed-by-the-gods race of the outcasts—whom people call dragons. Can Elyra win the support of these beings? Will she manage to become the Mistress of the Sky and unravel the riddle of their curse? And will she earn forgiveness from the one who considers her a traitor—and whom she loves more than life itself? A continuation of the novel "Walking Over the Abyss. Heirs of Magic."
