Survival isn't guaranteed. Magic isn't eternal. And destiny isn't merciful. Reya never asked for a crown. She never wanted to lead the remnants of a shattered kingdom. But when goblins raze her homeland, leaving nothing but embers and echoes of the past, escape is the only option. Her parents' final act opens a portal to Earth—a desperate bid for survival. But Earth is no haven. It is a war-torn wasteland, where distrust reigns and magic withers. If the fae cannot reclaim their power, they will fall—not to goblins, but to the ruthless hands of mankind. With Ashur at her side—the palace gardener turned reluctant protector—Reya must navigate the ruins of human civilization, forging alliances where betrayal lurks in every shadow. As the veil weakens, one question looms: Will humanity offer salvation, or spell their extinction? Fate once dictated her path. Now, Reya will carve her own. And this time, destiny bows to her.
