After having rescued his eldest brother Dirk during a perilous voyage beyond the Golden Door, humble-butheroic Rye returns to Weld with Dirk and his friends Sonia and Faene.

It will provide answers to some mysteries, while also giving them new ones to think about. And it will lead them into terrible danger, as the wider ramifications of Olt’s downfall become clear and an even more dangerous enemy rises to challenge them.
