An Agreement was made between humans and immortals, that divided civilisation, a long time ago, separating those with magical abilities from those without. The magics, called Immortals, left Earth, and migrated to the outer dimensions of the Seven Kingdoms, establishing a planetary system of home worlds for each of the immortal tribes. This happened a long time ago, humans have forgotten their history, the Clandestine Agreement, includes a pact of secrecy, the details are just only becoming known. But this is no fairy tale and Aurora knows Happily Ever After doesn't happen for people like her, people who have lived a life of violence. The best she can hope for is making these worlds safe for others and gaining some semblance of control over her dark demons, in the process.

Aurora must learn all the secrets of the ancient Rite and solve the riddle of The Elder, to save Earth and return home, with her sister. If that is what she is destined to do. . .
