Charged with retrieving her uncle’s personal items in another city before he dies, Lily and her companions return to the great city of Satta Sarak, where she first met them as an assassin sent to kill them. They barely obtain the mementos they seek when Osulin, the Goddess of Nature, warns them of a crisis, one that could have disastrous effects if not checked.
The Cradle of Life is corrupted.
Now the group must traverse an ocean that has been uncrossable for millennia, only to search for an ancient location none of them know. Along the way, Lily needs to reconcile her own views on life. Hers, her uncle’s, her friends’, and the world’s. Their success depends on it.
It seems that the world’s survival is in the hands of a few dauntless heroes. Again. If they can’t purge the corruption, it could be the beginning of the end for countless lives.
Sometimes, existence itself is complicated.
