For a thousand years, Irorra has stood beneath the Orr, a living sphere of light that ended mortality and raised an immortal civilization from the ashes of the Old World. Its towers climb into the heavens. Its people shape light into memory, emotion, and creation.
But beyond the city’s brilliance, death still waits.
When Emmet Le’yom’s final trial reveals a darkness that should not exist, his promising future begins to fracture. As unrest spreads and forbidden truths surface, he must question not only what he saw, but the world that taught him how to see. And the world that conquered death may yet be undone by memory.
