The night buries all Shadows...
After healing from the last battle with Idriel's Children, the young Shadow Heir, Aza Thane, once again finds herself at a magus's door looking for answers. There, she and her companions learn of a dark plot to raise an ancient demon necromancer in the corpse of a soul-eating monster and rush to the once great city of Austerden to stop it.
Racing toward a city on the brink of a massacre and still haunted by her past mistakes, Aza will have to learn to trust again if she wants to save anyone at all... including herself.
