Arin Vale is a clever thief who survives by stealing from the wealthy streets of a fading empire. But when he breaks into the royal vault and steals a mysterious ancient crown, his life changes forever. The crown was forged from the ashes of a dying star, and it holds a powerful magic that has been sleeping for centuries.
Now hunted by the emperor’s soldiers and guided by a mysterious star mage named Lyra, Arin must journey across dangerous mountains to stop a terrible secret from being unleashed. The crown is more than a treasure. It is a key to an ancient gate that could release a dark force into the world.
With courage, clever thinking, and a little bit of luck, Arin must decide what kind of hero he will become before it is too late.
