Some people are cursed to sink into sidewalks so they must spend their entire life inside. That&#x2019;s the way the world is after the rain. One is either gifted a power or a weakness, never both.&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x9;&#x3C;span style=&#x22;background-color: transparent; color: rgb(5, 5, 5);&#x22;&#x3E;Velli has a weakness, a voice in his head that&#x2019;s trying to kill him.

That&#x2019;s what Rose did. She&#x2019;s earned her life at the castle and now she can bring her family there.&#x26;nbsp; She&#x2019;s at peace. They&#x2019;ll finally be safe in this miserable world. Until the Queen tells her to go do an impossible task; one of violence, and that goes against the little bit of empathy she has left.&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
