Ziva is a blacksmith whose weapons have people coming from all over the world to purchase her work. When she is commissioned to make blade worthy of a powerful mercenary, she sends up creating the most powerful sword. By whispering her secrets to it, the blade gains the ability to reveal the greatest secrets of its enemy.

When the powerful mercenary comes to collect the sword, Ziva and her sister realize the danger they have put themselves and the world in. With the help of two young men, one man for hire and magical scholar, they flee for their lives.

Ziva’s magical ability to bestow magical elements to her work is an interesting twist on the transition magical abilities (elementals, telepathy…) Her relationship with her sister, Temra, is special. Ziva’s social anxiety makes it difficult to talk with customers. But Temra is outgoing and runs the front of the shop. They work together but still share the struggle of bearing one another’s fears and dreams.

I can’t wait to see how Ziva and Temra discover their individual strengths and defeat their enemies.
