Maeve’s time is running out, but her mission is far from over.
Stuck in the past for twelve years, Maeve has quietly preserved sacred knowledge at a doomed archive, safeguarding humanity’s future in a post-apocalyptic world. But now, nearing the end of her life, Maeve feels the weight of time and fate pressing down. With a failing heart and only two weeks left to ensure her mission’s success, she must balance her fragile strength with the urgency to protect her legacy.
Hiding from ancient enemies in a powerful priesthood and the ever-forward march of time, Maeve is determined to leave behind the knowledge her witch-queen daughter will need to save humanity. Together with her beloved partner, she works tirelessly to secure precious texts and artifacts in secret vaults yet to be built. But as a young version of her arrives at the hidden library, Maeve must confront the question she has tried to ignore: will all her sacrifices be enough to save the future?
Can Maeve master the balance between time, mortality, and destiny to ensure that the knowledge she’s fought so hard to protect will survive the coming decades to reach her daughter in time?
