Archaeologist Maya Bennett touches a bronze hourglass and wakes seven centuries earlier inside Cassian Vale, a ruler about to be executed. History brands Cassian a tyrant whose death doomed Veyra, but Maya learns he was betrayed by his court while Caldrin readied an invasion. Blood on the hourglass pulls her back and forth, letting her steer Cassian's body alongside allies Lyra, Seraphine, and wary commander Rowan. Every rescue rewrites the present: Maya returns to a modern Veyra still at war and finds herself its Prime Minister. To heal the timeline she must re-enter the past, halt the conflict, and face the true Cassian before the fracture locks forever.
