In Veth Harbor, the water has always been wrong.
The fishermen call it the Cold Shine, a blue-white glow that moves against the current and pulses at intervals no one can fully explain. For generations, the harbor has learned to live beside it. To navigate around it. To pretend it is only another danger of the sea.
Renn knows better.
A navigator raised on these waters, she has spent her life reading the channel others fear. When the Cold Shine begins to change, its intervals compressing toward something deeper and older, Renn is the first to see the pattern. She is also the first to understand what it means.
Because the harbor is not the only thing changing.
