Description
Akari gasps, bewildered. "That can't be possible..."
"Why not?" Yong counters, his face unspeakably solemn. "Akari, do you know what it means?" His dark, crescent-moon eyes search her honey-colored, almond ones for an answer, but their blankness tells him she's unaware. "It means you're the future of Xylon."
Since sixteen-year-old Akari discovered her gift of deflecting wounds, escaped the Great Harvest, and moved from the capital to the outskirts ten years ago, she has grown accustomed to her new, simple life. However, the unexpected appearance of an Andelovian boy in Cheyvelenia has Akari uncovering her buried past and identity. As secrets unfold, she finds herself entangled in power struggles, threatened by dangerous enemies, and divided by friendship and love. Can Akari possibly be the future of Xylon?
