Nic thought she'd found her place in this alternate ancient China. But as imperial succession looms, she realizes her greatest challenges lie ahead.

As armies gather and alliances shift, Nic faces impossible choices. Should she reveal the full extent of her otherworldly knowledge and risk everything? Or watch helplessly as this world she's come to love descends into chaos?

In a land where barbarians are feared and demons whispered about in the dark, Nic must find a way to bridge two worlds. Can she forge a future for them all without losing herself in the process?
