After six years in the brutal Velant prison colony, Blaine McFadden has returned to Donderath—a homeland ravaged by war and stripped of the magic it once relied upon. Now the Ascendant Kingdoms are a wasteland where magic storms rage unchecked and monsters stalk the ruins.
Amid the chaos, whispers tell of a new magic that could restore the shattered realms. But to claim it, Blaine must uncover the truth behind an ancient, perilous ritual and find a group of survivors who have vanished without a trace.
With only a small, hastily assembled force, Blaine prepares for a final battle that will decide the fate of their world. If they fail, the last remnants of civilization will vanish into ash.
