Heretics & Hearsay

By Daria K Da Silva and Haley Ellefson

In the world of Sumeria, an ancient feud persists.The Kingdom of Ead lives in fear of a prophecy: that the exiled Lilith-banished by the Creator himself-will rise again through the sacrifice of a girl born to her devoted Maidens. Determined to prevent her return, the Kingdom ensures their enemy remains powerless. In a quiet village, eighteen-year-old farmhand Beka harbors a deadly secret. When a murder casts suspicion squarely on her, an ally comes from the unlikeliest of places: the Prince of Ead, who risks his crown to protect her.But soon, Beka and the Prince fall prey to the Kingdom's most ruthless hunters, infamously known as the Capitan and her Magpie, to capture and bring her back to the King.What should have been a simple mission unravels when the heist goes awry, throwing all four into chaos. New and unexpected alliances must be made as truth blurs with deception, and faith collides with survival. Before the weight of loyalty, who will they prove to be?
