Ashes of Her Mercy

In the empire of Vaelora, mercy is weakness—and power is everything. Crowned at sixteen, Empress Myreiya rules her kingdom with unmatched magic and an iron will. Her court trembles, her enemies burn, and her slaves? They bow, bleed, and break for her amusement.



Among them is a silent boy with strange silver eyes and too much calm in his suffering. To Myreiya, he’s nothing—just another name without a past. Yet something about him unnerves her. He endures too easily. Obeys too smoothly. Watches too closely.



But Myreiya has no time for ghosts with quiet hearts.



She is the flame. The world will kneel—or burn.
