Synopsis:
Mirrors. Children plucked from orphanages thanks to the striking resemblance they bear to a royal who would become their Reflection. Their purpose? To die in their Reflection’s place.
My name is Elena, and I am a Mirror. My Reflection? Princess Briar of Kaimor.
That’s not all she is, though. Briar is my friend. My sister.
And she’s also missing.
—
Lenny’s job has always been dangerous, but the danger is rising as the Nightmen, rebels intent on exposing the sins of their king and ending a long-fought war, close in. When innocent blood is shed, Elena and Briar realize that safety is a thing of the past. That fact is only made clearer when Briar disappears.
King Tynan blames Lenny for failing to do her job. But she’s not the only one he holds responsible. King Tynan is enraged that the Nightmen have gotten so close. Their recent attack on palace soil and the princess’ disappearance have embarrassed him, and Tynan has a plan to end things once and for all:
Get back his heir.
Make sure no one knows she was missing in the first place.
Burn the Nightmen to the ground.
Those first two commands rest on Elena. The latter? That has been placed upon the shoulders of her new travel companions: The Flamekeepers. Once a revered guild who protected their kingdom’s greatest asset, these Brothers have been molded by the king into his finest warriors.
Lives are on the line, and should Elena and the Brothers fail, two things are certain: The Nightmen will win this round. And all of Kaimor will suffer King Tynan’s wrath.

Mental Health Resources for those in the USA – In light of the recent election, we want to put out a message that LGBTQIA+ and minorities are always welcome here. We may post promos in conjunction with tour companies that spout worldviews we don’t always agree with, but we do our best to avoid any openly phobic posts, and should you notice any, we’d appreciate you contacting us with this form to let us know.
