But his return sets in motion a string of brutal murders, as innocent people with magical abilities are hunted down and killed, their powers stolen and exploited for nefarious purposes.
Haunted by his own guilt and the weight of the lives lost, Krystov must find a way to make amends for his past mistakes and fight to restore balance to a world that he helped to upset. Can he find the strength to redeem himself and protect those he loves, or will he succumb to the darkness that threatens to consume him?

However, Oliver's peaceful existence is shattered when someone he trusts deeply warns him that his life is in danger and he must leave the city immediately. As he struggles to uncover the truth behind the threat to his safety, Oliver is forced to confront his own vulnerabilities and question whom he can truly trust in a world filled with danger and intrigue. Will he be able to outwit those who seek to harm him, or will he become a victim of the very technology he helped create?
