A story of adventure and self awakening, and a little romance, in a world where steam and magic of a sort live in uneasy coexistence. In the unimaginable past the Fae flew to the stars and created great wonders, but that was before the wars that shattered their civilization and the very world they lived on. Now mankind fights with sword and bow, musket and cannon, sailing seas that will eat iron plates in hours and dealing with monsters as intelligent as men and much more able to spin the Magic called the Skill.
Into this world Tina a girl on the edge of womanhood finds herself cast adrift as accident and bravery push her into the workings of a plot to save and utterly change the empire that rules most of the world. Finding herself an Imperial Slave, a Women's Guard sworn to protect the emperor, his family and the empire she knows has to change, she struggles to find herself and her role while also trying to stay true to her heart, her soul and her friends.
