Bookroo's summary

Evar, confined to an ancient library, and Livira, isolated in a settlement haunted by nightmares, are unnoticed by the world. But their fates are about to intertwine, unraveling secrets that challenge truth and lies. As their stories spiral across time and worlds, they must confront the blurred lines between knowledge and certainty. Will their discoveries ignite change or destruction? In a tale where the pen's might rivals the sword, the stakes are high, and the cost could be cities burned and blood spilled. What truths will they uncover, and at what price?
