Elonian warrior Nieve isn’t thrilled about being asked to mentor a prophesied ‘chosen one’ who can’t tell a sword from a hairbrush. Yet the king’s command is absolute, and time’s running short. Unfortunately, physicist Lea, the reluctant ‘chosen,’ doesn’t believe in fixed fates or wacky wizardry, and Nieve’s warnings about the shadows—where only the enemy dares to walk—fall on deaf ears. An unprovoked attack at night finally convinces Lea that Nieve’s not some raving lunatic. Soon, she throws herself into this new reality that hails her as a hero. A reality in which she can become invisible, light up like a torch, and fly with the birds. As the saying goes, all is fun and games until one of them dies...

When wishes come true, don’t curse the stars that granted them. Feeling undervalued in her new role as Royal Champion of Elonia, Lea leaves her magical surroundings and accepts her former professor’s invitation to rejoin the world of science. However, it doesn’t take her long to suspect that not all is sparkles and rainbows at the Think Tank he runs. With her former protégé gone, light warrior Nieve must come out of retirement. Luckily, she hasn’t lost her magic touch. But when she catches up with Lea, an old enemy is already waiting to spring a trap. While their former allies could swing fortune in their favor, their help comes with a price tag. With neither friend nor foe sticking to the game plan, maybe it’s time Nieve and Lea changed the rules.

After the cliffhanger ending of part one, Lea is once again alone—but not yet out for the count. One way or another, she'll find Nieve. Calling all friends and allies for help, she knows what she has to do: put her uniform back on and prove once and for all why she deserves the title of Royal Champion.
