About The Bright & the Pale

Valeria is one of the few survivors of a magical freeze that trapped her village beneath unbreakable ice. Hunted by the czar, she finds refuge with a thieves’ guild—until she learns her murdered best friend Alik is actually alive and being held captive. Buying his freedom means leading a band of criminals into cursed Knnot Mountain, where an ancient power is waiting to awaken.
