A centuries-old curse.Voices from the past speak.What happened to Rhydin Caldwell?Eleven years have passed since the creation of the Dome, an underground city where the rebellion against Emperor Rhydin grows in number. Lina has spent the years leading covert missions to gain supporters for the rebellion and waiting for the fateful day when she and Sam can be reunited with their children. In Caark, thirteen-year-old Rayna impatiently awaits the awakening of her Allyen magic, and trouble lurks around every corner once she takes matters into her own hands.When a startling discovery is made at the abandoned Archimage Palace, Lina and Rayna are thrust into the center of a dark curse that shatters everything they know. Ancient secrets are unburied, deceit runs rampant, deadly poison spreads, and no one is safe when the Dome comes under fire. While Lina must fight for help from an unlikely source to save hundreds of lives from certain death, Rayna learns the truth - the sorcerer's curse must be broken, or Nerahdis will be lost forever.

Rhydin reigns as emperor. The Allyens are hunted. Are the Three Kingdoms lost forever? The Three Kingdoms of Nerahdis are no more. After the death of the Archimage, Rhydin works to establish his unified empire by wiping out any vestigial resistance, closing his iron grip on the throat of Nerahdis. However, his reign hinges upon keeping his vast magical powers a secret from his new people. When the Rounan Compound is discovered and attacked by the new emperor's forces, Lina and her friends are forced to become wanderers, fighting to save their children and to found a rebellion against Rhydin. Not only must they recruit others to their cause, but they must find an heir to Auklia's throne if they have any hope of truly overthrowing him. Battling secrets, betrayals, and dark magic poisoning the land and its people, Lina must gather her army and expose Rhydin as a sorcerer at all costs before he becomes unstoppable.
