What lengths is someone willing to go to for power? How many lives need to be destroyed or ruined to gain the highest level of control possible? Will a simple colony takeover be the answer, or do you need to hold an entire nation hostage? These are the questions everyone should be asking themselves when selecting a new premier, but no one believes someone could be that corrupt or harmful.

The past should remain in the past, but it has a nasty habit of shoving its way to the surface. No matter what Aven does a life stolen from her keeps roaring back, bringing with it nothing but torment and heartache.

But the merriment is short-lived when the Ancients, along with the Guardians, try to dictate the course of her new-found freedom.

The prophecy failed; now what? Michael’s dead, the kerk has fallen, and Aven has been sent to the Dryad Forest with Zander. Their relationship may have been irrefutably damaged because of his constant lying and trickery. Her father, Delphi, isn’t any better.

Realms rise and fall like the sun, and Reynes is no different. When the chaos finally settles after a fight for control, nine kingdoms emerge, each responsible for diverse races of dark magic creatures forged by a plague that swept over the land. Dermont the Wise, a sorcerer and master of light magic, bound and destroyed this curse, then sealed off the realm from the rest of the world to protect it, thus severing the powers to all magical beings who called Reynes home.

Twins born at a time when such an event hasn’t been seen in centuries. Some fear them, others revel in their arrival, but no one is prepared for the chaos they will bring to the region. Only, this isn’t the first time the pair has caused such disaster. They’ve been around for centuries, a period of 12 cycles in time with their generation. No one remembers their previous existence except those who are sworn to guard the twins through the 13th and final cycle.
