After Karina lost her throne and kingdom to a violent coup, she has become the most-hunted person in the land of Sonande. Her only hope now of getting back her crown rests in a divine power kept in a long-lost ancestral city. Meanwhile, Malik has become Farid's apprentice, and found some peace in the midst of the disaster of Karina's sister's resurrection, but when it becomes apparent Karina is the key to restoring balance in the chaos, Malik--who once tried to kill Karina--must find a way to win her back to his side and save the world.
