In a world where Spirits and Humans are fundamentally divided, Iris finds herself balancing along that thin line. She holds the intelligence and understanding of a human, while toying with the magic of Spirits. And she isn't the only one. She joins a scattered and secretive league of mercenaries under the wings of Evalyn Hardridge, the strongest being on the planet. Terrorists, war and espionage threaten to kick down the cage of society they are tasked with guarding, while a collective will of the people yearn for a world less cruel. Within her is an absolute power that few can have, and only one can rival. As she struggles to understand the power that defines her, and attempts to bring her own meaning to the name 'Iris', the world around her tugs at her strings, manipulating her for their own means. While she travels across the continent, from autocracy to dictatorship to anarchist state, the nations sneer at each other, ready to clash Aether against Diesel, and Iris stands in the center, on the cusp of a new era.
