Pawns of Salistya by H J Bogue

Knowledge finds those who are meant to see.

I am the most powerful mage in Fyriane, sent by my sister, the Queen of Salistya, to take over the Kingdom of Arlom.
For one year, I have bided my time, hiding my lethal powers and waiting for the moment to strike, content to play the seemingly dutiful queen as I learn the Arlom ways.
Until the Royal Forum changes everything.
Fresh faces bring more questions than answers, including a man that I am undeniably drawn to. With all of Fyriane’s leaders coming together and the pressure from my sister intensifying, I can’t trust anyone. They’re all out for themselves.
But I will find the answers I need, one way or another.
As I discover the truths of Fyriane, a bigger picture starts to take shape. A picture that has me questioning everything.

Yet I must act. I am here now. I refuse to cower.
I refuse to be a pawn.
