A verse from before the rise. A prophecy dressed as a tale.
Before there were kings and queens, before Ravaryn stood in shadow and stone, there was only a vow—whispered in black, sealed in ember.
The Hollow Queen and the Warlord King is an ancient bard’s tale, passed in fragments through the centuries. It speaks of a dark queen and a warlord king, bound not by love alone, but by fire and ruin—by the weight of destiny and the hunger for power. Some say it is a prophecy. Others, a warning.
Each book in The Hollow Queen series begins with a verse from this forgotten song, echoing the past as Leila Morana writes her own version into legend.
