In the heart of the imperial palace, the sorceress Qazah opens a book no one has ever been allowed to read: "The Secret of Secrets." This book teaches not only magic, but also how power is wielded through words, and how to lead the masses without a sword. As Yafi takes his first steps into this hidden world, dangerous whispers begin to circulate in the palace corridors about removing him before his threat grows.
Will Yafi truly become the heir to Qazah's secrets? Or will the emperor's advisors preempt him with their plot? And is the word truly mightier than the sword?
