The magic in this world isn't just a gift. It feels more like a heavy debt that you never quite finish paying off.
“I was a shadow of a shadow, a girl made of dust and expectations.”
Living in the shadow of a legendary family is exhausting. Briony is constantly trying to measure up to ghosts that don't even know her name.
There is a specific kind of loneliness in being the one who stays behind. You watch everyone else become heroes while you just try to survive the day.
