For years,
Azreya accepts her place as one cursed by the gods, but with foresight of an
impending slaughter, she dares to attempt to reverse the Aztec people’s fate.
At the age of
three, Azreya is placed in the care of a shaman, Nukpana, who promises to
protect her. Servitude to the man who vowed to keep her dark side from emerging
seemed a small price to pay until a special client visits. Azreya’s inner
compass clashes with Nukpana’s wishes and her rage boils over.
With the demon
just under the surface, she has no choice but to flee, only to find her own
family refuses to take her in. Still unable to stand by and witness her
people’s demise, Azreya pursues a quest to enlighten them. She faces many
challenges—not the least of which is the monster hiding under her own skin.
Can Azreya
control her inner beast and convince her people to break from age-old patterns,
or will the Aztecs be vanquished by the enemy?
Journey back in
time to unlock the secrets of the Aztec.
