Ticca and Lebuin exposed the treachery of the shadowy mercenary nation led by the ruthless and insane elf-lord, Shar-Lumen. With the citizens of Niya-Yur calling for revenge, the alliance rulers gather in Gracia, the ancient imperial capital, to declare war on the mercenary nation. Ticca and Lebuin agree to complete a series of impossible tasks to discover the truth behind Shar-Lumen’s plans. The resulting battles of the building conflict awaken ancient powers, long forgotten, who must decide if they wish to join the battle or let them take care of themselves. Meanwhile, Ticca and Lebuin rush to stay ahead of the death squads sent by Shar-Lumen to stop them while pulling together the fragments of the shattered future, and past, to save the realms.
