The Violet Requiem

Elyndra is a vast fantasy continent divided into seven kingdoms, each with its own rulers, cultures and rivalries. Shinkai is an eastern empire ruled by an imperial dynasty and powerful noble families, while Valtheris, Qadir, Nordraven, Asteria and Verdane each hold their own territories and secrets. The lost kingdom of Eclyria, an ancient civilization that mysteriously vanished a thousand years ago, remains one of the world's greatest mysteries. Some rare individuals possess unique supernatural abilities called Signatures, while mysterious creatures known as Veyr roam the continent. Reika Kurosawa was born into one of Shinkai's five most influential families, but eventually abandoned her noble life to become an independent assassin. Six years ago, she was blamed for the Black Masquerade, a diplomatic gathering that ended in disaster when important figures disappeared and the alliance between kingdoms collapsed. Now hunted by several kingdoms, Reika travels alone, carrying secrets connected to her past. Her Signature, Kageutsu, allows her to manipulate shadows and distort space. Meanwhile, the mysterious Concord, an organization with influence across Elyndra, wants her captured alive. As political tensions rise and ancient secrets resurface, Reika may hold the key to a mystery capable of changing the entire continent.
