Death is coming for them all.

Luka is back, but he's not the same. Something happened to him. Bringing him back from the dead did something to him that she doesn't know if she can fix. And keeping him there only seems to be doing more damage to him.

Luna is holding Talon hostage, using his magic to her own nefarious purposes in bringing people back from the dead. But Ela can see the effects this is having on Luka. He doesn't belong in the land of the living and it's tearing him apart. Almost literally.

Ela has to find a way to save magic from being destroyed, but in order to do that, she's going to have to make a choice.

Talon. Or Luka.

How could she possibly choose?
