Darcy burned with the pain of knowing she'd failed. What happened when a prophecy didn't come true? It must not have been much of a prophecy in the first place. And if they couldn't trust in that, then they couldn't trust in anything at all. Thrust back into Alitheia through unexpected means, Darcy winds up alone, scared, and without her recent memory. As she struggles to reunite with the ones she loves, she pieces together the prophecies and the oracles to find they all converge into one story - a story that tells her just how much she'll have to give to save both worlds, and everyone she loves. Pursued through Alitheia by forces desperate to kill them, Darcy and her friends take a journey fraught with danger that will lead them, inevitably, to the final confrontation with the Shadow. And, ultimately, the greatest courage of all belongs not to those who give something of themselves, but to those who let go of what they could never control.
