"Behold The Queen of the Flame draws near. She walks in truth and light, to burn away the evil that weighs upon our souls." The fae realm teeters on the brink of war as King Beltran of Ravensforge aligns himself with a nefarious ally promising dark powers that will make him the greatest monarch since King Auberon. Blindsided by the ceremonial transfer of powers within Oakhurst at the Circle of Royals, Beltran swears his former Guardian will pay dearly for her betrayal. Things are not as they seem when Connor and Shea take in a young fae and her infant daughter being relentlessly pursued by the Royal Guard of Ravensforge. Soon after, assassins strike in the heart of Oakhurst, setting the newly-crowned ruler of Oakhurst on a path of vengeance such as the realm has never seen. As the dark magic fully manifests itself in King Beltran a mysterious warrior of the Fire Clan steals a valuable mystical asset from within Castle Ravensforge, setting the entire realm on a collision course with a sorceress of immeasurable power capable of passing judgement on them all.
