A bond with a spider, A misfit noble house, and a terrifying enemy. What more could a girl want?In Elista, it's only once you've been Chosen and Bonded with a Spirit-of-the-Mists that you take your avatar form and gain your true name.

But do I end up with a beautiful avatar, like a dove or a swan? Nope. My avatar is a spider and my name is.

. .

Legs. You accidentally wear one skin-tight, super-short dress and you end up with a name like Legs for the rest of your life.

Also. .

. a spider? Ick.

But my name is the least of my problems. Someone is trying to kill me and I have no idea why.

The more I dig, the less I like what I find. Mythical beings? A cabal of nobility seeking to undermine Elista? A secret war with another nation.

Oh. .

. and I'm fated to stop it or die trying.

None of this seems real. Luckily, I have friends willing to help.

I may not have been selected to be a part of the most powerful noble house, but the band of oddballs and misfits that took me in are there for me, through thick and thin. .

. And more than a few of these hunks and hotties want to be there for me in an entirely different way, which I have no problem with.

If I'm going to die young, I might as well have had some fun first. Now, I just need to stay alive long enough to discover who wants me dead, find love, and save a nation, all at the same time.
