A long time ago, two god-crafted artifacts—the Immortal Gem and the Eternal sword—were locked away, strong enough to warp time, cheat death, and crown their master. To unlock their power, six are required: five wielders of the elements and one child born with royal blood—the Chosen Vein.
Rhea Carter, a shy college student, never thought there was such a thing as magic until vivid nightmares, ancient markings, and glimpses of a past life start to plague her. When she encounters others who are gifted with elemental powers—earth, fire, wind, water, and light—she starts to discover a destiny bigger than anything she ever dreamed. Rhea is the missing puzzle piece in a prophecy that has been hidden for centuries.
But what no one anticipates. is him.
Kael Draven, a solitary boy with an unstable magical ability unlike any of the others, toes the line between light and darkness. He wasn't included in the prophecy—yet the relics appear to react to him. When enemies come to claim the artifacts and chaos erupts across the kingdoms, Kael's purpose becomes more crucial—and more enigmatic.
In a world of corruption by power and deeper lies than blood, Rhea and her friends must choose whom to trust and fight for.
For only together can they open the relics closed by fate—and endure what follows.
