Imprisoned, defeated, broken…

The Season Trials took everything from Ayla. She faced all the hardships and awakened her powers, but it wasn’t enough. Presumed dead, she has been left to rot in the palace’s dark dungeons. Drowning in her thoughts and emotions, she’s gasping for breath, desperate to stay afloat.

An unexpected ally pulls her from the clutches of her enemies, and Ayla must set her grief aside. The Heirs set off across the Realm, determined to unleash their true powers and prepare for war alongside the rebels.

Valdemar may have won the Trials, but he’s still far from becoming Emperor. A mere puppet with enemies tugging at his strings, he’ll risk everything to find his way back to the woman who holds his heart.

Ayla has every reason to seek vengeance. The gruesome battle ahead will be brutal, but the best things in life are always worth fighting for.
