Something ancient is awakening beneath the sea—and it may decide the fate of a war.
Beneath the turquoise waters of Nahala, an ancient power stirs, waiting for the moment it can rise again. Ailani has always felt the pull of the ocean, but she never imagined the secret hidden beneath its calm surface would be tied to her destiny.
Ailani never wanted to follow her family’s path as warriors. She prefers the freedom of the reef—spearfishing at sunrise and diving into the deep blue waters surrounding her island home. But when war spreads across the seas and the kingdom demands more soldiers, she is forced into brutal military training where only the strongest recruits survive.
As rivalries grow and deadly trials test her limits, Ailani discovers the ocean is hiding more than ancient magic. Something powerful has been watching from the depths… and the shadow of a dragon may hold the key to the war itself.
But power always demands a price. And if Ailani cannot master the magic, the sea may claim her long before the war does.
