In the aftermath of Sombra's return, the balance between light and dark magic has been destroyed and chaos has broken out in Castallan and around the world.

È arrivata dal nulla, proprio nel momento in cui lui aveva più bisogno di lei... La voce di un angelo, un sospiro nel silenzio, l'unico appiglio a cui Nathan Kelly ha potuto aggrapparsi durante il periodo infinito della prigionia e delle torture, fino al giorno in cui è tornato a essere libero, pronto a ricominciare una nuova esistenza. Ma ora quella voce è scomparsa e lo ha lasciato a consumarsi nella solitudine, a rimettere assieme i pezzi della sua vita. A chi appartiene quella voce? È stata solo la sua immaginazione o là fuori c'è veramente qualcuno che lo chiama?

Fleeing the horrors of Atlantis, Psyche and her lover, the fallen god Eros, have made a new home for themselves far from the watchful eyes of the gods… or so they think. But when a group of raiders attacks the peaceful valley, it’s clear that they’ve been discovered. When they learn that Eros’s blood-hungry brother, Deimos, has disappeared from Olympus, it’s not hard to connect the dots. Meanwhile Olympus is in uproar over Deimos’s disappearance: he has stolen the First-Forged Blade, the adamantine knife that Zeus uses to maintain his power.

Atlantis. They say the gods walked there once. They say they walk there still. An island so rich, men have fought over it for centuries. But those are not the riches I am interested in. I have reason to believe my family — the father and sister I once thought dead - have found shelter there as refugees. I've heard Atlantis is impossible to reach these days, that it is a kingdom steeped in treachery, ruled by a tyrant. But no matter the risk, I know I'll stop at nothing to get there. It's not just kings we have to fear, though. It's gods.
