Sharmaine Light, from the noble Light Wolf clan, hides a terrifying secret: she is an Oracle. Since childhood, she has been haunted by recurring visions of the "Great Feral"—a giant black wolf that will emerge from within the Imperial Palace to annihilate everyone inside and cause the entire Lyran Empire to crumble. Sharmaine’s life changed during adolescence when she experienced an unusual transformation—her fur turned orange, contrary to the white fur of her clan. Shortly after, she was forcibly sent to the prestigious Imperial Academy. At first, she thought her dreams were wrong because the current Emperor was an old, weak man, nothing like the Feral in her visions. However, her peace vanished when the Emperor introduced his three sons to the Academy. Upon seeing the princes, Sharmaine realized that the true vessel of the Feral is one of them. Her nightmare was not of the past, but an impending tragedy in which she is now trapped.
