“You’re killing them,” Jungwon repeats.
A beat passes. To Jungwon’s immense surprise, the god steps back, until only his sandals are touching the ground.

Summary
Scintilla (n.) a tiny, brilliant flash or spark
Long ago, Reds and Silvers were at odds with each other. When the Newbloods came in, heroes arose and united the two with King Yang ensuring it remained that way. However, when the king died, the old ways returned, and non-Silvers were shunned.
Prince Yang Jungwon is determined to destroy that notion, and meeting Park Jongseong gave him even more reason to do so - the rebel gave the prince a spark of hope for a better world. However, the High Houses had other plans, and a string of unfavorable events break out. Jungwon finds himself - and his heart - in the center of it all. The fate of the kingdom rests in the young prince’s hands and whether he takes a stand for what he truly believes in.
