Tsingsei 'Song' Gould is a brat. As the only child of the richest, most influential family in Andalise, could she really be anything else? Unfortunately for her senator father, she also has an eye for the ladies, which is why no one but Song knows. One stupid mistake later and Song flees in panic, rather than bring the shame on her family. She leaves her home and sets sail on a stolen skyship.
However, the owner of the skyship isn't the forgiving sort.
Now caught up in the world of pirates and scoundrels, Song must fight for her life. Luckily, she has an advantage. Somehow, somewhere, the mysterious kijæm has chosen her. Armed with this deadly power, she must learn to wield it, or be consumed by it.
