Midnight Odyssey

In a sunless kingdom cursed by eternal night, a young princess must face three impossible trials to reclaim the light — only to discover that some truths are darker than the dark itself.

“They say the truth will set you free, but some things are best left in the dark.”

Synopsis

Princess Moxie Dawn has never seen the sun. When a dream pulls her toward Lune, the feared moon witch, she returns with a prophecy: complete three trials, restore the light. But the deeper she ventures into the dark, the closer she gets to a truth about her kingdom — and herself — that no one thought to warn her about. Because some knowledge doesn't liberate. It transforms.
