The Gentle Veil (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781972343289)

Book 2 - The Gentle Veil

The Accord begins as a promise: shared knowledge, shared responsibility, shared survival.

But the first gift the Lyrani offer is also their greatest boundary-the Veil, a planetary-scale atmospheric shield designed to regulate climate, protect biodiversity, and prevent technological exploitation.

When Earth scientists propose adapting Veil-tech to stabilize a collapsing region back home, the Lyran Council hesitates. They've seen what happens when powerful tools spread faster than wisdom.

Then the Veil starts to thin.

Weather patterns bend. Signal paths twist. A quiet pressure builds in the skies-like a held breath. Elara and Lyran diplomat Kael Vey race to find the cause, but the deeper they go, the clearer it becomes:

The Veil isn't failing.

It's responding.

And whatever it's responding to is waking up.
