Three years before the arrival of Shadow Eclipse, the prophecy stated that among the seven "Children of Shadow Eclipse" a Light Master would be born to end the eternal night. Eleanor Weller, the blacksmith's daughter, is one of the candidates - but she can't do magic or fighting, she can only forge iron.
The only "specialty" is that she can hear the truest voices in other people's hearts.
In a world where everyone wears three masks, this ability is not a gift, but a curse. She heard the knight who wanted to protect her, calculating her use value in her heart; she heard the assassin who assassinated her, crying in her heart for her kidnapped sister.
When the kingdom's Minister of Intelligence, the exiled knights of the Wild Dogs, the Frost Whisperers north of the Great Wall, and other forces all regard her as a pawn, Eleanor must answer a question:
If you could hear everyone's hidden secrets - would you use it to climb to the throne, or destroy this world full of lies?
