    Summary

    After nearly nineteen years in Jakku, the great Western Desert, Rey is no stranger to cruelty. No one in Jakku is. But Rey tries to carry kindness like water--she keeps it with her always. She can't ignore a chance to save a stranger's life, and she can't bring herself to regret it even when it results in her kidnapping at the hands of mischievous Spirit, a mythical being of air and Living Force.

    Dragged before the Spirit's liege lord under the promise of losing the songsteel slave collar around her neck, Rey demands her reward and her return. But her collar has held fast for nineteen years, and it seems not even Spirit magic can break it. Her Spirit friend is determined, though, that he'll be held to his word. His lord offers Rey a place in their court until her collar can be broken and Rey accepts. But the politics of the court are changing and Rey's place there is not all it seems. Surrounded by the strange and beautiful Spirits, and newly learning about the Force that Lives, Rey must choose to treat her kindness like more than water, because it might be the only thing that can save her in this strange new land.
