When the dismembered remains of Maya are brought to Citadel just to tell Yves II and all of Citadel to surrender to the rule of Tarsus, it becomes evident the kingdom is on the brink of fierce battle unless dialogue dissipates the rising tension. By virtue of a dialogue gone wrong, Tej is sold out to Perseus and blindly hopes his servitude in the castle of the oligarch would maintain peace between the two kingdoms. When the scales finally fall of his eyes, one thing seems so certain; Tarsus is close to wiping out Citadel with the magic that surrounds his throne. Armed with nothing besides courage and loyalty, can the young warrior fight legends and mysterious creatures to redeem his people and stop tyranny in its tracks?
