Synopsis
Six is one of six Diviners confined to Aisling Cathedral in the kingdom of Traum, revered for foretelling futures through dreams and water rituals but given little freedom of her own. When the newly crowned King Benedict Castor III has his fortune read, Six meets Sir Rodrick "Rory" Myndacious, a knight openly skeptical of the Diviners' claimed powers. Shortly afterward, the cathedral's other Diviners mysteriously vanish, leaving Six the only one remaining, and she flees the cathedral to search for them. Accompanied by the doubting Rory and a gargoyle companion, she sets out across the kingdom, her journey forcing her to question everything she has been taught about her faith, her home, and her own abilities.
