A child meant to be sacrificed to a fire god, saved by her father, grows up to be Viega-- god killer. Kissen soon finds herself a reluctant guardian of Ina, a child who has lost everything to fire. Despite her best efforts, Kissen grows attached as they travel to the land of wild gods to detach Ina from her God of white lies, they find themselves wrapped up in the political machinations of the king. I love Kissen's found family, those she calls siblings. She is gruff, but has a moral code that endears her to Elo- the baker Knight. They run from their pasts, but they can't outrun the forces chasing them.
