Description

Nila Brant’s life was ordinary—until a hike in the Utah mountains changed everything.

A chance encounter introduces her to Rion, a mysterious stranger, his companions, and Liseth, a silver-furred Pagolese with intelligence and power beyond imagination. When Nila touches the Irkoy crystal, it bonds to her, unlocking extraordinary abilities—and thrusting her into a universe she never knew existed.

Now an Irkoy Bearer, Nila must master heightened senses, telepathic connection, and the profound power of the crystal, while navigating interstellar alliances, ancient secrets, and a threat known only as the Mist—a malevolent force that devours life itself.
