With Adelle's farm behind him, Brent again finds himself alone. The only hope he has is the knowledge of the town-going road that will lead him to Adelle's cousin, Lemm, who will supposedly help him on his journey.
The only question is: will Lemm truly be on his side?
Even while Brent continues his quest, a darker evil lurks in the heart of the Empire. There the Emperor of Arkania looms terrible, with a beastly shadow and a haunting, yellow-eyed grin.
For the aether is breaking, and the very fabric of reality is threatening to pull asunder. It won't be long before the power that the emperor holds will no longer be restrained, and even he will be able to seize freedom for himself -
Even if that means taking it from everybody else.
