In it, you'll find the following tropes: - Touch her and die - Villain gets the girl - Fish-out-of-water - Found family - Badass women - Morally grey men - Love triangle - Pirates - Dystopian world - Plot twists - Fast-paced, high-stakes adventure - More snarky banter than you ever thought possible.

This is a standalone origin story for the villain in the Thalassic Series. You DO NOT need to read the other books before you read it! In fact, this makes a nice entry point to the series.
