Disclosure: certain links are commissioned.

An archaeologist possesses a doomed king to prevent a centuries-long war.

Archaeologist Maya Bennett cuts her hand on a bronze hourglass and wakes in the body of Cassian Vale, a monarch kneeling for execution. History records him as a tyrant who ruined Veyra, yet Maya uncovers a court conspiracy and Caldrin's impending invasion. Blood on the artifact pulls her between eras, granting control over Cassian's actions. She coordinates with allies Lyra, Seraphine, and the wary commander Rowan to expose treachery and keep the king alive. Success rewrites the present: Maya returns to a modern Veyra locked in endless war, now serving as its Prime Minister. Restoring the timeline demands a return to the past and a confrontation with the true Cassian.
