Safiya Al-Akhad, haunted by forces that terrorize her dreams and aching from loss, is skeptical when approached about training in the Elementals, but she's desperate enough to risk her life and accept. Orphaned by attacks that destroyed her village and born with the gift of Eseere, she wrestles with maintaining her equilibrium when witnessing the pain and oppression that exists around her. In the meantime, events are unfolding upon Sahyun that will thrust her into a web of political plotting among the clans and the colonizing off-worlders. As a result she begins to discover some of what she is capable of as she struggles to come to grips with the plight of her people.
Eseere, Book One of the Sahyun Chronicles series, follows the challenges that Safiya faces as she copes with her loss and learns who she is.
