[Lady of Gems 0.50] • Gown of Shadow and Flame

**Sometimes evil has to be the hero.**

Her brother throws the first stone. Her family tries to kill her, but Celaise chooses to live, even if it means dressing herself in forbidden magics and leaving humanity behind.

Now is her last chance to regain what she has lost. Celaise rescues Jerani, a warrior adorned with a sunburst of scars from a tribal ritual. Jerani fights to defend his family and their sacred cows from crystal-eyed monsters roaming the savanna. He learns to rely on Celaise's magic, she on his strength.

Jerani thinks her divine, a volcano goddess. Celaise dares not confide in him. Engulfing the throngs of beasts in the inferno of her dress will loose her magic's hunger. Then the greatest threat to Jerani and everyone else she has come to care for will be herself.
