But my return brings more than renewed passion. It brings danger.

To save Embernia, I must uncover the truth of my missing year before it destroys everything. But the deeper I dig, the clearer it becomes: the greatest threat isn't the enemy beyond the border. It's the truth slowly awakening within me and what it might cost me.
