Julian has spent his life in hiding, longing to fit in. He has mixed ancestry, and a faulty gene weakens his power. He once stole and now writes poems and cooks. War breaks out when winged people from the Eastern Kingdom attack. Julian faces painful choices as fear takes hold around him.

His allies each have their own hopes and burdens. A princess seeks freedom for all, across species and gender. A boat captain catches those who hunt people of mixed ancestry. He also tries to escape his past. A fugitive seeks her sister and hopes to go unnoticed.
