Synopsis
The third and closing novel of the original Chronicles of the Emerged World trilogy picks up with the Tyrant's armies advancing across the Emerged World and its allied lands under direct threat of invasion. Nihal, Sennar, their companion Laio, and the gnome Oarf join forces with figures such as the general Ido, the healer Soana, and the former pirate Aires, who now leads a resistance movement. Their shared goal is to gather eight magical stones, each said to hold the power of one of the world's elements, from hidden temples scattered across the eight lands. Combined into a single talisman, the stones are believed capable of suppressing the Tyrant's dark magic for a full day, and the group must reach and secure them before the enemy can stop them, risking capture and injury along the way.
