Ule lives as an ex-convict among her people, a race of trans-dimensional worldbuilders known as the Xiinisi. Tired of feeling like an outsider, she withdraws into a world of her own making, unaware that she’s embarking on a journey of self-discovery and profound transformations of body, mind, and spirit that will see her evolve from an unlikable, impetuous young being into someone—and something—far beyond what anyone could have ever imagined…
In the conclusion to The Forgotten Gemstone & The Other Castle…
On the brink of death once again, Ulmain despairs—”I am a monster!” But after deathmorphing into a demon, he realizes he has no desire to harm anyone. Reflecting on what he values most, he deathmorphs into the Elishian Ul, merging male and female aspects into a feminine form that feels truer to her.
When two bounty hunters mistake Ul for a demon and capture her, they reveal that Mithreel—the deadliest and oldest of demons—has escaped his prison. Determined to find him, Ul journeys to the farthest reaches of Elish and beyond, pushing the boundaries of her own power and existence until she can no longer escape the call of her true nature. Only then does she embrace her most authentic transformation of all.
True nature is impossible to escape.

Reader Reviews
Kit Daven’s trilogy is unique, inspiring and excellently written. Her vision is the most unique I’ve ever had the pleasure to read. If you’re looking for a completely original and well-crafted story, then this is the one to read.
—Karen Dales, author of The Chosen series
As with the two previous installments of the Xiinisi Trilogy, I have to say here that I was impressed the author was willing to attempt such an ambitious story. This one was probably the best of the three, which is a high benchmark to set… without spoilering anything, I can tell you the book wraps up what needs to be wrapped up, answers the questions the earlier books posed, and finished with a satisfying ending that makes me think I’d read a second trilogy if one is ever written. Eleven thumbs up, at least.
—Cameron Currie, author of the Oubliette Series
One of the most imaginative and thought provoking fiction novels I have read in a very long time. …through a series of trials and tribulations and successive incarnations, the protagonist (Ule) slowly evolves from an impetuous self-centred child into an all loving and compassionate shepherdess of both her own creations and that of her fellow demigods. While many trilogies tend to fade away by the final novel, the Xiinisi Trilogy bucks that trend by saving the very best for the last. If you like a story with something to say between the lines, then this is the series for you.
