With Utheria's grand Retendi festival just around the corner, the royal family is shaken by the sudden disappearance of their youngest son and heir to the throne. Just as his older brother, Prince Soren, arrives to aid the investigation, Lothien is miraculously found... but when his powers start failing him, it becomes apparent the young crown prince's life is in danger. Now Soren and his comrades have to venture into uncharted Teyetocal territory to bring Lothien to the cure before his time runs out. Meanwhile, under King Vedalis's watchful eye, tension begins to arise once more between Utheria and its Navidian allies. With the threat of war dangling over his head and scheming shadows lurking in every corner, Soren has to face the corruptive secret hidden in the cradle of magic and make decisions that will change the future of the two kingdoms forever.
