An archaeologist inhabits a condemned king to stop a war.

Archaeologist Maya Bennett slices her hand on a bronze hourglass and awakens seven centuries earlier in the body of Cassian Vale, a ruler kneeling for execution. Official records paint Cassian as a tyrant who doomed Veyra, but Maya uncovers a court conspiracy and Caldrin's looming invasion. Fresh blood on the artifact yanks her between eras, letting her share Cassian's form with allies Lyra, Seraphine, and commander Rowan to expose the betrayal. Saving him rewrites the present: modern Veyra remains locked in endless war, and Maya returns as its Prime Minister, forced to confront the real Cassian to mend the shattered timeline.
