The Empyrean War ended the dispute between angels and demons with the sundering of the realms and formation of the Abyss to contain the malediction's tainted magic. Now, after years of silence, the Abyss stirs as its guardian, Tahir, searches for help in another matter, closer to the heart of his people. Soon his world collides with Kalla, set to free herself of the betrayal and horror of her past. In another part of the world, Suri struggles with his own power and loneliness, fearing his power is somehow linked to the Abyss. When paths cross will they be able to help Suri reach his potential and embrace who he is, or will that be left up for another?
