The War For The Aethers Has Only Just Begun... Cole and his friends escaped the terror in Costas. However even with all their skill and powers, they failed to stop the Devotion. While fleeing across the far reaches of Aeneria, they answer the summons of the Celestial Council within Oberon Temple, who demand that The Sill account for their war crimes, and that Cole answer for his own transgressions. With one Harbinger crowned and the other two soon to follow, the shadow of The Three grows darker by the day, bringing new enemies and unexpected challenges for Cole and his friends. Cole has become a powerful warrior, but he simply isn't enough. If Aeneria is to have any hope of surviving the second coming of The Three, he must delve further than anyone before him into Aeneria's ancient magics.
