The time of the Shadow is magical. Anything can happen.
Though the falling Arc in the sky brings the fearful Shadow of winter, Princess Sabina of Castellis sees hope. After all, the old legends claim that the time of the Shadow is magical. Anything could happen. She could even escape the loveless marriage she was forced into fifteen years before. But everything, especially freedom, comes at a cost.
When an oracle's prediction offers the chance to escape, Sabina finds herself caught between dangerous courtly factions in a kingdom ruled by men. Navigating a medieval world on the cusp of a techno-magical revolution, Sabina must protect her family, uphold the King's will, and learn that strength isn't shown with a blade alone.
