After Sylvie's sacrifice, Kels is no longer the same woman who first stepped into the hidden world of dragons.
Grief has changed her. Loss has changed her. And the realization that words alone cannot defeat Peretus forces her to confront a painful truth:
They cannot win this war alone.
With Peretus tightening his grip and dragons from other realms facing persecution, Kels and her companions abandon civilization and disappear into the wilderness. Their goal is impossible—bring dragons together, convince them that Peretus is the true enemy, and unite them behind a single cause.
But the dragons have every reason to distrust them.
Kels was part of the group that helped bring down Prouth. The dragons know that their kind can die. Peretus has used that fear to turn them against one another.
Now Kels must stand before dragons who may see her as an enemy and convince them to fight beside her.
Their only hope may lie in Mortimer's lost knowledge and the portal device he once created.
But before they can reach it, they must survive the hunters closing in around them.
A summit could unite the dragons—or ignite a war that consumes them all.
