A woman who grows the universe from a Louisiana garden. Six children who were built to save it. Twelve ancient Houses that want to own it. And a debt twelve hundred years old that was never about money — it was always about who you become when everything is watching. Celine LeBlanc was a soldier before she was a mother. She held a country together with obsidian batons and a 162-IQ son running the planet from a basement while she was gone. She stood on the Moon. She met the woman who built her bloodline twelve hundred years ago and kept her in a cryo-pod waiting for the right moment. She came home to Louisiana, planted an oak tree, and decided she was done being extraordinary. She was wrong about the done part. But she was right about the oak tree. Now her granddaughters are seventeen and dismantling four-hundred-year-old Dragon-Seas law from a conference room in London. Her four Dragon-King grandsons are twelve, and each one of them is capable of ending a war — or starting one — before breakfast. The Exile-Lords want a treaty. The Dragon-Seas Houses want the children. Prince Stellan Drakenmoor is on his way to Louisiana with a bottle of wine he researched carefully and the specific look of a man who meant the letter he wrote. And somewhere on the Moon, the First Queen — the woman who built all of this, twelve hundred years of patience compressed into a repair that runs through the living ground of every connected planet — has stepped away from her monitoring console for the first time since the eighth century.
