In a magical Persian Empire, an extraordinary thief will steal a ruthless warrior's heart, upend an empire, and form bonds deeper than blood.
When the power to rule all is in your hand, what will you do?
Opening portals, controlling shadows, or creating storms are all in a day's work for the legendary thief, ruthless shadow mage, loyal fugitive, and wicked scoundrel who rule four different parts of the Sunlight Empire. Fighting against each other to search for the relic that can create and destroy worlds will be far more of a challenge.
Falling in love will be even worse.
