Kieri Phelan finds himself thrust into a complex web of royalty and responsibility when he unexpectedly inherits the throne of Lyona following a death that reshapes the power dynamics within the realm. As a kingdom where humans and elves coexist in a fragile balance, Kieri grapples with the heavy burden of uniting two rival factions that have historically harbored deep-seated distrust and resentment.
Amidst political intrigue and brewing conflicts, Kieri must navigate the challenges of leadership while aiming to foster harmony. As he learns to wield his newfound authority, alliances are tested, and loyalties shift.

As tensions escalate, Kieri’s journey reveals the intertwining fates of various characters, each with their own motivations and dreams for the future. In this evolving landscape of power, the true meaning of fealty is explored as Kieri strives to become the leader Lyona desperately needs.
