    Summary

    Lily O’Connell did not know belonging. She had never known what it meant to be part of a place — to exist among people and simply fit, like a missing piece of a puzzle finally found.

    Lily O’Connell did not know how to feel. She could mimic emotion — smile, laugh, even cry when necessary — but none of it was real. The joy, the pain, the fear… all just shadows behind glass.

    Lily O’Connell felt empty. A void lived where a heart should be, and no matter how much she gave or took, it never filled.

    But Lily O’Connell read. She consumed books like a woman starved — devouring stories, breathing words, bleeding ink. Within the pages, she belonged. Within them, she felt. As if she’d been born not to live in the world,
    but to lose herself in ones others had written.

    _

    All it took was a planned fall — deliberate, desperate. A bridge, a breath, a step. And then Lily O’Connell tumbled into the water... and into a world that wasn’t her own.

    A world of dragons and war, of power and blood.

    All she found was a name.

    One scribbled in the margins of a diary that didn’t belong to her —
    Iselda Abellona-Mikhaila.
