The barrier was built to keep us safe. It’s killing us. I’ve devoted my life to protecting the kingdom I will someday rule, and all my research reveals there’s only one way to save us. The magical barrier that keeps our wicked enemies trapped in the Lands Below has to come down. But my desperate, covert attempt to bring down the barrier failed spectacularly. Now I’m trapped in the Lands Below, and at the mercy of the Captain of the Guard for the kingdom we defeated so long ago. And I’m starting to think I shouldn’t have stabbed him.
