With no word from Kyja, the people of Farworld are beginning to face the possibility that she is truly dead, and the quest to save
Farworld and Earth has failed. In an effort to find a way to bring
Kyja back, Marcus must enter the most dangerous place possible
the realm of shadows.
Meanwhile, Kyja wakes up in a world of lost souls and memories.
With no idea who she is, she wanders Fire Keep, home to the
most quick tempered of the elementals. The other spirits around
her have given up hope. But Kyja is driven by a strong sense that
something is wrong and getting worse. A familiar voice warns her
that time is running out. To recover her memories, she must face
a literal trial by fire.
Can Marcus survive the realm of shadows to reach Kyja? Can
Kyja survive Fire Keep in time to regain her memory? Time is
running out for Kyja, Marcus, and their worlds and the Dark
Circle's real plan is only now beginning to be revealed.
