In the Orchard's Ashes

Weeks after the defeat of Zan, Fox Berger and Adrien Flèche find themselves in Abrisur, home of the Dream Stone, an entity whose ability rivals the five other Power Stones in existence. At the end of a war decades earlier, Abrisur was founded by the Vagabonds, a people who experienced immense losses and endured unspeakable suffering throughout the ages. However, the Paipomians, a proud, strong people who live just outside the town's wall on the other side of the river, argue otherwise. They claim that the Vagabonds' salvation came at the cost of their land and blood, and that their oppression lives on. To further muddle up matters for Fox, unresolved questions about her beloved grandmother resurface. Unsure what to believe, the heroine decides to stay to learn the truth and unravel the mystery surrounding her deceased relative. Soon, she uncovers facades and secrets related to her own past and identity, and ultimately begins to question everything she ever knew.
Then there's Adrien, who continues to cope with his past sins. Things are complicated more when he comes in contact with a familiar face. With a guilty heart and the fear of losing a friend, he is willing to do anything to hide his bloody history from Fox.
Once again, Fox and Adrien find themselves in the middle of conflict, a conflict that soon turns deadly. In a twist of lies, betrayal, and sorrow, the fires of war have been set. When the flames die down, will justice prevail? Or will only ashes remain?
