An ancient evil is loosed upon the land of Lythinall and a young monk is swept up in a perilous journey across his homeland to try and stop it. A strange power awakens within him, bearing with it prophesy and danger, but he is not alone. He meets the legendary bard Karsis, and travels with the Princess of Everknight to realms that they have only dreamed of. Hidden forces watch them, with bated breath, as this evil could spell the end of everything

The Incarnation of Death has been slowed down, but at a cost. Now our heroes must reach the capitol city of Everknight and work with the King and his council to find a way to stop him for good. Yet Everknight is not a safe haven. Intrigue and assassins seem to be around every corner in the castle, and the mastermind behind it all is eager for Rhoe to arrive. Revelations and long hidden secrets come to light, but will they help our heroes cause, or tear it all down.

The epic adventure that began in The Darkness Returns reaches its dramatic conclusion! Following an ancient prophecy, Rhoe and his companions now travel to ask the long-hidden elves for aid. Getting there will be hard but allies may be found even in the strangest of places. Meanwhile, the resurrected elven archmage, Ill’lyth G’harr, unleashes an all-out attack on the city of Everknight even as she strives to bend the Incarnation of Death to her will. The Companions of Everknight fight to defend the desperate city, but even so things are dire. As darkness falls over Lythinall hope still shines in the hearts of the brave heroes that refuse to lie down... but will it be enough?
