Finding the Way

Viola Alerion has been on the run from the intergalactic Haldrian Empire for most of her adult life. After parting ways with her one and only apprentice whose faith inspired her own transformation, the storyteller finds herself plagued with more profound, life-altering questions than she's ever before been willing to consider. And most importantly, she is in a position to choose her path, seemingly for the first time in her life. Determined to face her past and unlock the secrets her apprentice hinted at, Viola sets off into the jungle of Téarman unaware of dangers there that will test her faith, her self-belief and threaten to cast her back into the pit of her worst despair. But more frightening even than a raging swarm of poisonous fireflies is the knowledge she must face the most terrifying and powerful being in the whole intergalactic empire—her mother.
