They might have won the battle to rescue Ariana, but the war is still coming... Still heavy with the losses she endured and those she felt she caused, Zelene is unsure of what to do next even though all eyes seem to be turned to her for guidance. Paralyzed with grief and fear of losing anyone else, she would rather lock herself in her room with the literal ghosts of her past than take another step forward. Unable to sit by idly or wait for Zelene to make a move, Terrena takes matters into her own hands. Fresh on the heels of her betrothal to Reilly, the duo make plans to unite the lands as the prophecy calls for. First on her list is the Athucreans, the warrior race that breeds the Cynewards bonded to the girls. Determined to honor Kenward, Terrena ignores the warnings that the warrior race would rather see their heads on spikes than make peace. When familiar faces find their way back into their lives and those they thought they could trust turning against them, the bonds holding the young Duillaine together start to fracture. The girls struggle to win the war against their grief and keep hold of their growing power before it consumes them all.
