Once Lacrimosa was crown princess of the eternal night. But after the king discovered that she was of illegitimate birth, he disowned her. He sent her to work in the castle kitchens and made her the laughing-stock of the royal court.

Working as a servant isn't so bad; she was well-liked by the castle staff, and they still make sure to look out for her now. The only problem is the way others look at her: for bringing shame to her family, for getting special treatment, for clinging to her high-born manners and ways. All she really wants is for her name to be forgotten.

Unfortunately, the Prophecy just chose her as the next legendary hero and ignited the sun in her right eye. Lunar priests are on the hunt for her, bent on sacrificing her to their moon. She must flee to the land of eternal day, and she'll need to overcome her fear of her terrifying new sun-magic if she wants to make it there.
