In the kingdom of Ilya, only those with powers granted by a past Plague, the Elites, are permitted to belong, while those born without abilities, the Ordinaries, have been banished by royal decree. Paedyn Gray, an Ordinary surviving in the slums, poses as a Psychic by relying on the keen observational skills her father taught her. After she unexpectedly saves one of Ilya's princes, she is drawn into the Purging Trials, a dangerous competition meant to display the Elites' powers, abilities she does not have. As she navigates the Trials, she must conceal her true nature, including from the prince she finds herself drawn to.
