Lena is a normal. Normal, that is, until she finds herself transported to another time and place known as Laconia. Far removed from the world she knows, the "land of the white dust" is a city-state of flourishing Elysia. Laconian citizens live in a pridefully harsh world where slavery and female infanticide are commonplace, and physical prowess the stuff of celebrity. A land that will shake her convictions on love and trust to the core.
