The Sword-Poet's Secret

Kael Lyndon, White-Robed Sword-Poet, sealed the Shadow Cult with the Jade Flute. Fifteen years later, Empress Regnant Aurora Jade deposes him. She seeks the Jade Flute, believing it holds treasure. Court denounces him, unaware the Shadow Cult returns if the Jade Flute leaves his hands. No one knows the Empress and Shadow Cult leader are twin sisters. When the Jade Flute falls, a Shadow Cult mole reveals identity. Guards turn traitor, chaos, Empress regrets.
