Magic is back in Adelith, and with it the return of Cyran. Elijah spends his days preparing for the annual Hollom horse race and working at his guardian Merrick's forge. That is, until Merrick is summoned back to Castle Aebarrow in Adelith by the king. Unable to stay in Rheanydd without a legal guardian, Eli is forced to go with Merrick who takes up the position of captain and trains the new guards. But the more time Eli spends in Adelith, the more his lost memories resurface-and they throw up worrying questions about his past. As a member of Princess Sienna's Elite Guard, Eli saves her life when it's threatened by the presence of a mysterious Missing Prince. Eli's heroics incur the wrath of a mad sorcerer known only as The Master, hell-bent on ending the courting prince's life. Elijah enters a dangerous path of self-discovery where magic and secrets intertwine. The truth about his past is within reach, but can he unlock his memories and solve the riddles in time to save the true heir to the throne? Or will the castle be brought crumbling down once more?

The truth is revealed, but will history repeat itself? For dragons will rise again. And Elijah is the key. Having grown up in Rheanydd, all Elijah wanted to focus on was entering the annual Hollom horse race. A year later, he’s one of Princess Sienna’s Elite bodyguards in Adelith, where he learns more about his hazy past every day. King Roderick’s solution to Eli being revealed as the missing crown heir is to marry Eli to Princess Sienna and combine their two bloodlines. But when a body is found with a blood-splattered message and the queen reveals a secret about Eli’s magic, a wedding is the last thing on everyone’s mind. Eli starts to doubt the Dragon Elders’ motives when their answers only come in the form of cryptic messages. Yet he can’t help but feel a connection between the dragons and himself. So, he agrees to fulfil their task to get the relics before The Master’s Agents of Cyran. But the agreement between the dragons and his father is due to end soon, setting the dragons free from their human forms and able to rebuild their race. Unless The Master gains control of them. Can Eli and the dragons work together to stop The Master from getting the relics, or will he gain control over the dragons to rebuild the world and become a god?

The world is at stake, and only Elijah can save it. Broken down and beaten, Elijah heads to the Elven Capital with his companions. Their plan is to teach Eli to take control of his magic, with help from a tutor assigned by the elven King Norialin. Believing they have bought themselves some time before the next attack from the Master, the king sends out scouts to spy on their foe. But when a betrayal of trust leads to assassination attempts, they learn there are spies in their own camp that must be flushed out. Elijah is in a race against time to find the assassin and get the information they need before they strike again, or worse, kill someone. Plus, Eli has a powerless Dragon Lord to contend with trying to teach him his history, though, the old man refuses to give up anything that might actually help them. Finally revealing the location of the last dragon's nest and the theory behind the master's plans. But where there are nests there are dragon eggs, the final thing The Master needs to fulfil his destiny, start the ritual and become a god. Can Elijah overcome these obstacles, control his magic and stop The Master before he executes his plan, or will the whole world fall to the rule of a mad man?
