Humans are seen as weak. Helpless. Crude. And yet, I hold the heart of the Vakhing King.
Thor found me battered and beaten—he believed me to be frail—but I taught that Vakhing what it means to be human . . . To be fierce.
He nearly gives up his throne to be with me, but I can't let that happen. Now, it's time for me to show everyone what I am capable of. I will prove to this race that I am as strong as their warriors. I am meant to be with the Vakhing.
Thor's blood Sang for me. And the blood cannot be denied.
But when it comes time for the trials, something is wrong . . . My tasks are laden with traps. They are nearly the death of me. But as a human, I refuse to be defeated.
I have only two options: win my place at the side of the Vakhing King or . . . die.
