Synopsis
Lilau Noka wasn’t just born different, she was born to die. The intervention of the spirits kept the local tribe from leaving her to her fate, but the spirits only demanded she live. Acceptance was never part of the deal. Stuck on the outside, the unwanted child grows into an equally unwanted woman. But when a golden serpent grants her magical sight, an unknown threat drives her on as a single question burns an ever deeper wound—if she is so worthless, why is she alive?
