When sixteen-year-old Tea accidentally resurrects her brother Fox from the dead, she discovers she is a bone witch — a rare and feared necromancer in a world where magic-wielding asha govern society and politics. Taken from her village to train in the ancient asha arts of combat, elemental magic, and performance, Tea must navigate court intrigue, social prejudice, and a growing darkness tied to the monstrous daeva. The story is told in a dual timeline, with an older, exiled Tea recounting her past to a bard — hinting at a far darker destiny than her training years suggest.
