Malik: I try to stay grateful that my glass has any water in it at all. Do you see the glass as half full or half empty? Perhaps I’d even throw a feast if I was feeling particularly generous that day. I’d perform all day, and then when I got bored of performing, I’d spend the evening receiving all kinds of gifts and praises from my adoring fans. We used to do that a lot, but these days there is too much work to be done for us to gather as we once did. Malik: My perfect day would be spent sitting in the lemon grove on my family’s farm with my family. Next I’d wish for more hours in the day, so that my dear steward Farid could rest for once (and thus perhaps stop yelling at me for not taking my lessons seriously.) And for my last wish, I’d wish for–for my father and sister to live once more. I don’t need the pony or the silver, but it would amuse me. First I’d wish for a pony made of pure silver.
Karina: Only children believe in making wishes, but I’ll humor you. For my last wish, I’d wish for someone who I’d wish that my mothers and sisters would always stay happy and healthy.
But if I knew the wishes came with no hidden cost, well…I’d wish for a new home for my family, one where we’d be safe from the Sentinels. In all of the stories my Nana told me growing up, misfortune always fell on those who made wishes for things they weren’t meant to have.
Malik: Honestly, I don’t think I’d wish for anything. What would you wish for if you had three wishes? But as attraction flares between them and ancient evils stir, will they be able to see their tasks to the death? When Malik rigs his way into the contest, they are set on a course to destroy each other. And she knows just how to obtain one: by offering her hand in marriage to the victor of the Solstasia competition. Grief-stricken, Karina decides to resurrect her mother through ancient magic. Her mother, the Sultana, has been assassinated her court threatens mutiny and Solstasia looms like a knife over her neck. But when a vengeful spirit abducts Malik’s younger sister, Nadia, as payment into the city, Malik strikes a fatal deal-kill Karina, Crown Princess of Ziran, for Nadia’s freedom.īut Karina has deadly aspirations of her own. Brownįor Malik, the Solstasia festival is a chance to escape his war-stricken home and start a new life with his sisters in the prosperous desert city of Ziran.
