To be human is to live blindly. With mud in my mouth and blood on my knees, I run past a sleeping girl clutching forget-me-nots, a haunting reminder of my own lost innocence. Just days ago, I was a fairy, shedding my human skin to return to my world of light and immortality. But tonight, I am human, and if they catch me, I will die. On the day Cronus was born, the earth trembled, and flames shot into the sky, carrying Seelie fairies. The Unseelie emerged from the ashes, destined to hunt the immortal flame of the Seelie. An accord was struck: every hundred years, a Seelie must live as human for three days, allowing the Unseelie to pursue their prey while the gods look away. Selyara, a princess of firelight, craves freedom but must face this trial alone. As queen regent, Lavara awaits Selyara’s fate; if Selyara fails, Lavara will ascend the throne. On her first night as a human, Selyara grapples with the reality of the hunt. Lore, a trained blood hunter loyal to the Unseelie, captures Selyara and becomes captivated by her. Torn between duty and newfound feelings, he must decide whether to betray his queen for a girl whose life is worth more than any immortal flame. Together, they uncover dark secrets that could alter their destinies forever. This graphic novel features seven chapters of vibrant art, cover galleries, and sketches by Sabine Rich.
