Trauma doctor Lynn wakes up in the mystical fantasy realm of Aethergard following a fatal road collision on Earth. A rogue artificial intelligence system traps her consciousness, demanding she steal the sacred Heartscale relic from Dragon Emperor Aurelius if she ever wishes to return home. Aurelius rules as an isolated monarch, cursed with constant telepathic perception that floods his mind with every courtier's treacherous thoughts.
To his astonishment, Lynn is the only living soul whose thoughts remain completely quiet to his telepathy, and her touch provides soothing peace. As romantic feelings ignite between them, Lynn learns that obeying the artificial directive will plunge Aurelius's empire into total ruin.
