Welcome to The Continent of Myths…
For centuries, the species of The Continent have coexisted, held together by the long established Council of Myths, made up of the five kings who rule its nations. Now, the oldest living being on Earth, The Original Vampire, has been found dead without an heir…or so they’ve been told. When a young woman, raised among the mortal world, is revealed to be the long lost daughter of the deceased monarch, her arrival sets forward the course of events that no one saw coming: except maybe her.
