Bound by the same magic which poisoned all three, rent asunder by their burdens of guilt and obligation, duty compels Naomi, Taren, and Reynolds to Southwick to fulfill an ancient prophecy. However, the love and loss each have suffered make their task anything but simple.
Sharrod is gathering the six elemental stones, the gate to the Underworld will open, and the UnderGod Shon will destroy the world of the living should he escape. Only Naomi’s magic is strong enough to prevent it. As she resigns herself to the will of the Vivatera and its demand of her life, Taren vows to prevent that sacrifice at any cost. But Reynolds sees beyond the needs of his own heart. Can he decipher the prophecy before it’s too late? For only he holds the key to the mystery of the Everstar and Naomi’s survival.
