Navina had learned much in such a short time, but there was still more that she needed to know. So many questions that had yet to be answered, but she had help now, in the form of a Demon and his mate, a Witch she had come to call friend, and a Valkyrie, whose own quest had brought them all together. Malice had spent months searching for Marena, only to find her locked in an endless slumber, and in the care of an old friend. Her heart ached for the love she had lost, her soul crying out, over the injustice of it all. Marena had been but a pawn in the enemy's grasp, but to Malice, she had been so much more; unlocking the wonders and releasing the darkness the Valkyrie had harbored within. Now that very same enemy, is threatening the Verse once more, and Malice will stop at nothing, to unlock the secrets in Navina's mind; with the help of some new, and old friends. Together they will endure, whatever the Eno'tai send forth in the next wave, and they will find the answers they seek; for if they don't stand up and fight, then who will?

Time had no meaning for them. Past, present and future; here and now. They were always waiting, always watching, but never interfering. It was forbidden, and yet for one female in a line of many, the act, of not acting, was far worse than she could bear. Cast out of the Order that had given life and purpose to her kind, her family disowning her, Navina must live her life as an outcast, with nothing but the memories to offer a glimmer of what she once had; and all because she chose to act... Together with Lync and Kember, Navina must navigate the whirlwind of memories, stories told over time; a history of what was, and what would come to pass. What would her mind dig up next? What fabled tale had been locked away in her mind, until now? She'd need a book to keep track of them all in hopes that some day, she'd remember everything.

Everyone knows that the sweet summer nights are filled with fun and adventure, but what if there was something more? For Khia, and her people of the Isles, those summer sunsets had a way of bringing out the most sinful cravings, a lust that could not be controlled, and her people embraced each night with a longing like no other. And now, Khia was coming of age. She had prepared herself, as many of the other young women had, she had listened to the stories and she had witnessed the lust filled ceremonies first hand; she had been waiting for those long summer nights, where she could finally lay claim on her 'soon- to-be' mate and experience the pleasures for herself. She was almost ready... But when the southern villages are attacked and Khia is taken from her home and forced into slavery across the seas, she feels forgotten and fears those sweet summer nights will be no more than a torturous whirlwind of heartache and chaos. She finds herself alone, confused, and very afraid and she knows that there are sacrifices to be made, if she was to survive. But can she? She would have to learn the rules of this new world and its people, and use them to her advantage.
