A city that breathes. A court that answers. A door that opens only for consent.
When edicts grow teeth and ink hunts rooftops, nine unlikely allies descend into the Cathedral of Faults to ask the law itself to lean. Zila-the singer trusted with Silence. Harl-the carpenter who loves ugly pegs more than pretty lies. Vale-a captain who prefers verbs over speeches. And Vesper-a basilisk with impeccable manners. Together they'll face Trial by Echo, rooftop wars, and a Gate that refuses spectacle.
