As the accused stands before the dreaded Judgment Seat, bound by sigil-etched chains designed to shackle his will, he shockingly denies his failure. But when the Citadel itself reacts, its living rock flaring with the weight of broken promises, Adaline must discern if his defiance signals deeper secrets or a truth that could shatter the foundations of her realm.
