Synopsis
All is in turmoil as the world moves towards war. In Solarno, spies eye one another and ready their knives while the people of Myna watch troops gather at its borders. Emotions run high as old fears reawaken. And in Collegium students argue politics, too late to turn the tide. At the heart of the Empire, new pilots complete their secretive training, generals are recalled to service and armies are readied to march. For nothing-either within the Empire or beyond it-will stand in her way.
