    Summary

    Death was supposed to be an escape.

    She was tired. Tired of being trapped in a reality she didn't want. There had to be more to life than this.

    There was adventure, there was freedom…

    There were ghosts?

    Summary

    "Where I'm from."

    She started as always.

    "There's about a 1% chance you'll see a whale your entire life."

    Her eyes sparkled. There was probably a bigger chance here. She'd have to tell Hannah all about it when she got back.

    "Land locked the way we are, it was probably even less for people like us."

    Joy had never seen the sea before this.

    Had never really thought about it.

    But this world seemed to run on the sea, seemed to thrive and build and live with it like it was life and death and taxes.

    Even she could admit that if left to it long enough she may become a bit addicted to it.

    "So whales are incredibly rare. Just about as rare as it is to find someone, something, truly important."

    Joy had lived her life in a bubble of knowledge. Scarping together every bit of information she could come across and devouring it. she could write a paper on anything. And hand it in, numbered with 12pt, times new Roman font with a bibliography and feel absolutely no stress.

    But knowledge did not equate to action. So when she awoke in a dark forest with her heart beating and head screaming to survive the only thing she could do was try.

    You were too old for this.

    Or: you wake up in one piece, ruin everything, and engage in the worst game of hide and seek you’ve ever heard of.

    Summary

    There were only a few things in life that Elara every really wanted: for her older brother, Rhysand, to finally start paying attention to her, to live a life free out from under the oppressive thumb of her father and marry the male she loved more than anything, and to feel the wind beneath her wings.

    Only she didn't live to see any of that.

    Taken near death, stripped of her memory, and given a new identity, she ends up on the wrong side of the war with Hybern. With every horrible thing she does in the name of the King of Hybern, she becomes more and more of the soulless monster that they want her to be.

    Then, when a certain shadowsinger takes an interest in her, missing pieces start to fall back into place.

    Will she ever be able to piece together the life that had been ripped to shreds that day in the Illyrian mountains? Does she even deserve to? Or is Elara truly gone forever?
