Some secrets are hidden in ruins. Others are hidden inside us.

In Remnants, long-buried worlds reopen and forgotten truths rise to the surface. A locket unlocks possibility. A sister challenges the rules of death. Gods hedge their answers, fae twist their bargains, relics hum with old power, and even lost memories refuse to stay silent.
Across the gamut of speculative fiction, these stories follow women who uncover what was buried—whether by time, by power, or by choice—and must decide who they will be once the truth is revealed.
Because nothing truly vanishes. It leaves remnants.

Daughter of the Dispossessed is the prequel to Cave of Whispers, and tells the backstory of Ayleth, an important character in the first novel of the Kingdom of Sigor series.

As an orphaned child, Ayleth never knew where she came from. Her strange magic frightened all around her, and she was treated like an outsider. A curse. Someone who could never truly belong. One day, she is whisked away by a mysterious stranger, Lord Gabrian, who promises her a future she never dreamed was possible. Raised in his keep at Algowin, Ayleth begins to explore the depth of her magic and how to control it. But is that enough? What do her strange dreams mean? Why do the bones of dead things call to her?
