The portrait vault was opened, curse broken, and Jacob freed. But when Jacob runs out on young Sarahi again, it breaks her heart further. Rakepick's betrayal, Jacob gone, losing her friends to see them getting darker; how does a traumatized young student deal with that? It seems no one is willing to admit that Sarahi has problems. Least of all Sarahi. However, a new curse is not far behind. As the new curse strikes hard to freeze students with fear, both literally and figuratively, will Sarahi be able to deal with all her responsibilities? She's tired out, but is still going on to protect her friends, afraid to fail. She may be the Protector forever... Her heart, body and soul may hurt forever. Sarahi has been holding up her crumbling world for years, but at what point is that strength not enough? (WARNING: Major spoilers for Year 6)
