Her truth. His quest. Together they must fight.

Reeling from the aftermath of the painful revelations in the lab, Nova returns to Aerdmure still trying to digest the irreversible changes made to life as she knew it. She continues her training while yearning for Fynn's return. Only then can they work toward justice, toward righting years of wrongs...

But Fynn finds himself trapped in Arkwood by a force more powerful than any of them could imagine. Word of this outlawed dark magic reaches Aerdmure, and the hunt begins to learn how to extinguish it. But with all texts about dark magic buried in the past, the question becomes...how? And perhaps more precisely...who?

Unsure of who they can trust and desperate to find their way back to each other as the mysterious dark force grows stronger and more destructive, Nova and Fynn must uncover one final truth if they want any chance of a future together, and a future for all of Astria.
