Born a princess.

Made a warrior.

Always a slave.

Three kings war while their heirs watch from behind gilded cages. A prisoner of war, Ashta has nowhere to go. Forced to watch her father and his armies march to Trian, she must become who she has always been too afraid to be. But Ashta is too late to save those who had saved her from the wrath of kings.

Now Ashta must make a choice. Serve - and die - as the slave she had been trained to be? Or fight as the queen she almost was?
