Description: Promised to the Light. Hunted by the Dark.
Two things happen the night Elidi Brant is attacked: she learns she's not human, and she is saved by the impressive and, also definitely not human, Kol Valco. Kol tells her something big and world-breaking is after her, but he promises to protect her until she "ascends." Elidi doesn't know what ascending means or how to access the abilities Kol insists she has, but she trusts him. The claws and fur he can sprout at will make her feel safe. However, safety is a fragile thing and the forces chasing her are more powerful than Elidi can imagine. With the clock on Elidi's mortality ticking, she must find a way to access her gifts or kill them both in the process.
