Wings of Winter
The King of Aurora cast the realm into an endless winter centuries ago… But each year he gives both immortals and mortals a chance to win back the seasons for their province in a deadly competition: The Gleaning. It’s a battle that Rowan, the son of the fae king, intends to win. The games always start with an opening night feast, where competitors celebrate – and size up the other players.
