The Cursed Land Oath of a Soldier

Nothing ever goes the way Nadia wishes it would. The curse over Cidon has been lifted at the cost of her friends, Ezekiel and Milan. A world she's always known is unreliable now, with foreign magic loose within the swamps and forests of their home. War still rests in pause, delicately balanced, but tilting toward inevitable devastation if she can't convince the council of Ashan to set aside their life of peace. All the knowledge in the world couldn't have changed what Jasper was able to do to keep his lover safe. With his last request of staying by Nadia's side in mind, Jasper's duty is the same as hers is. Diplomacy, politics, and a cruel measurement of what matters more between Ezekiel and all of Ardenia.The past has always mingled with the present, for Ezekiel. Held for interrogation and eventual execution, that is as true as it has ever been. If the past can truly help him, the way Milan says it might, they have a chance of surviving to see the future. Ezekiel has made it through worse, with less, and he'd much rather leave the past where it belongs.With the fate of a country in the balance, each must answer two questions. What do they fight for? And how far are they willing to go to get it?
