  In America, the amount of money people earn for doing the same job isn't always equal. The United States only recently made it illegal to pay men more than women for the same job, and the country's history of racism has created big wealth gaps between white and Black people that persist in the twenty-first century. Learn how income inequality originated, why it is a problem, and the ways people are fighting for an equal playing field.

  Within the glacial spires of Frostveil, where crystal echoes reverberate with the songs of trapped spirits and the ice queen reigns over eternal winter, Queen Niamh encounters Ronan, a fire-wreathed nomad whose nomadic flames defy the frozen decree. Their awakening love, sparked by a stolen ember in the heart of a blizzard palace, shatters the crystals' silence and ignites a forbidden alliance against the encroaching void. As they trek across ice-rimed tundras and flame-scorched fissures, pursued by frost wraiths and nomadic outcasts, Niamh's thawing magic merges with Ronan's wild fire, unveiling an ancient crystal pact that could balance the realms or plunge them into cataclysmic melt. Betrayed by a scheming advisor who seeks the queen's throne, they must echo their passion through the spires to summon a solar eclipse ritual. In a world of frozen echoes and blazing desires, where every thaw risks flood and every flame courts frostbite, their love becomes the crystal that harmonizes ice and fire in eternal embrace.
