Ember's revolutionary powers are sealed in a girl with whom he lost contact with for thirteen years and who also doesn't exist - at least, not in the world Ember is in. But Ember is adamant - he must get his powers - so, he tries. He opens portals after portals, fails, tries again until one night, when the gods ruling the empty skies finally decided to take pity on him, he manages to open the portal, not even knowing how he did so. He meets the girl who had his heart for the longest time he could remember, but only to realise that her memories were erased, and getting back his power is going to be much harder than he thought. The flames of Ember shall return to him, he will make sure of that, but, at what cost?
