The Tithe of Iron

In the Iron Spire, status is measured in light, and survival is paid for in rust. Vesper is an elite Architect of the High-Tiers, designing the gilded world she’s begun to loathe. Koren is a scavenger from the industrial slums, breathing the soot of a city that has forgotten him. When a forbidden relic from the Spire's foundation surfaces, their worlds collide in a high-stakes game of power, betrayal, and dark romantic tension. One seeks to preserve the legacy; the other is determined to dismantle it.
