Bainevah Series by Michelle L. Levigne

Challen expected to be nothing but a footnote in history, lost in the shadows of her talented, powerful parents. Her father was King's Seer and the voice of a prophecy that had troubled the kingdom of Bainevah for decades. Her mother was a fire priestess, daughter of the High Priest of Matrika--who died for speaking the truth. Challen was more than happy to be her father's assistant, take care of his home, run his errands and carry out his research... moreChallen expected to be nothing but a footnote in history, lost in the shadows of her talented, powerful parents.

Her mother was a fire priestess, daughter of the High Priest of Matrika--who died for speaking the truth. Challen was more than happy to be her father's assistant, take care of his home, run his errands and carry out his research. She didn't want to marry, unless it was a great love like her parents knew.

Prophecy said a daughter of the Holy Line would restore the true worship in Bainevah. Naya, daughter of High Priest Chizhedek, was the first daughter born in generations, and her father saw her as fulfillment of prophecy. He sent her to the Sanctum, to serve in the Sacred Marriage and win the heart of King Nebazz. Nothing would stand in the way of Naya becoming First Concubine, then Queen Mother, then the first High Priestess of Matrika in centuries... moreProphecy said a daughter of the Holy Line would restore the true worship in Bainevah.

Nothing would stand in the way of Naya becoming First Concubine, then Queen Mother, then the first High Priestess of Matrika in centuries. Nothing but the King's Seer, Shazzur, and a love strong enough to withstand the High Priest's curse, the hatred and magic of Dreva, and even death... less

Prophecy finds fulfillment woven with hearts, on a loom larger than the world... Dia has no memory beyond a wall of pain and fear. She was glad to be living a solitary life with her loom, weaving the patterns set by the black-robed priests who said they were her friends and protectors. But as the years pass by, she grows certain something is wrong, and her weaving might somehow be part of it... moreProphecy finds fulfillment woven with hearts, on a loom larger than the world... Dia has no memory beyond a wall of pain and fear. She was glad to be living a solitary life with her loom, weaving the patterns set by the black-robed priests who said they were her friends and protectors. But as the years pass by, she grows certain something is wrong, and her weaving might somehow be part of it. Has she caused a great disaster to strike the world, or is the disaster about to happen? She wants to escape, but has no idea where to go. Asha leaves Bainevah, seeking his destiny and the reason he had been born, and comes to Dia's hidden canyon. When he steps through the magical barriers and finds her, they both know something momentous rests on what they will do next. Though they have never seen each other before, they somehow sense they have known each other all their lives. As Asha and Dia escape through the wilderness, they unravel mysteries of a betrayal hundreds of years old and battle demi-gods who want to destroy Bainevah. And when Dia's memories begin to return, the world threatens to unravel like the weaving that is part of her soul... less
