And as their relationships grow and their journey takes unexpected flights, they grow surprised of the worlds they all hold in deep from secrets from their pasts.

To break it, they must unravel the truth behind an ancient prophecy, survive a kingdom built on lies, and confront powers that have waited centuries for their return. But every answer comes with a cost, and every step toward the truth brings them closer to a fate that has claimed countless lives before them. Because some destinies are written in blood.
