A girl with no memory of her former life. A boy who might have all the answers, and people who will stop at nothing to get them both back. 16-year-old Ryder, a certified street rat, and skilled thief has always been able to dream parts of others pasts. Nothing intrigues him more than the past of a strange green-eyed girl, running from something terrifying. To 16-year-old Lana, Ryder was just another obstacle in her way. A blip in her path to finding out how she ended up wandering the streets with no memories. But somehow, she's connected to him. Somehow, Ryder knows details about her past that Lana was meant to forget. Lana knows one thing, and one thing only, the people she escaped from don't intend on leaving her alone. The scars up and down her arms tell her that much. Searching for stolen memories, Lana and Ryder discover that sometimes, it's better to forget than to remember. "I'm a subject to you, aren't I? Funny thing. You're just another monster to me, so I guess we're even."

Peace is threatened for the first time in twenty five years. Unnatural disasters of incredible power sweep across Rhalia; mountains collapse, a kingdom is swallowed by the ocean, and a strange epidemic arises on the north. The superstitious whisper that another Withering is approaching, and that the suffering of the world is only a result of demons finding a new master to lead them out of their prison. In the middle of Ariwa Forest, Thalia finds herself trying to deal with a demonic illness that has spread among her people, but solutions are slipping through her fingers and time is running out. On a last desperate attempt to save her loved ones, Thalia decides to work with a strange foreigner who claims to know a way of curing the disease. After an enraged ocean nearly drowns an entire kingdom, Soren finds a dangerous secret that may reveal the flooding wasn't as natural as it appeared to be. Troubled by his discovery, he struggles to help a kingdom that rejects the help of sorcerers, and he's forced to work alongside those he despises the most. Meanwhile, on the shattered mountains of Ragno, a young sorceress named Romi seeks the demons that supposedly caused such destruction. With the help of a lesser spirit, however, she finds that someone else is already prowling the mountains searching for the same thing; and at the same time, searching for her. But on those mountains Romi finds that the disasters spanning the continent are no mere coincidences, although that revelation becomes the least of her problems as she finds a strange girl that claims to hold the power to stop the war to come.

"If there was one thing that could throw this town on its head, of course it'd be the goddamned McKenzie house." The McKenzie house stood tall and proud, its walls worn down by time and weather. It sat with windows boarded and shutters closed, with doors locked and a porch full of holes. It was still for sale, but nobody in their right minds would buy it. First it lost its family, then its charm, and finally its power. For the past two decades, the house stood overlooking Weary Ranch, cold and dark and desolate. On one cold September morning, the citizens of Weary Ranch woke up to alarming news: all the lights were on in the McKenzie house. Thanks to @trevor_davis and @apruplebird for beta reading.
