    Summary

    Phainon, Lord of the Underworld, had been watching from the shadows between worlds for weeks. He was tired of the eternal gloom of his kingdom. The black rivers that whispered secrets, the crystal caverns that rang like broken bells, the asphodel fields stretching gray and endless under a starless vault.

    He wanted life. Specifically, he wanted Aglaea, the most radiant princess of Castrum Kremnos, whose beauty was said to make flowers turn their heads and nightingales forget their songs.

    So he planned the classic move: to emerge from the chasm in a chariot. One sweep, and back to the Underworld before anyone could scream more than twice.

    What he hadn’t counted on was that royal children look annoyingly similar when they’re both wearing ceremonial laurel crowns and lounging among the same flowerbeds.
