Outside The Devoted’s valley, each triumph only opens a door to greater responsibilities. Inside his strange little family, Boyd strengthens the Bonds that sustain him. But now, the weight of the world itself rests on his shoulders.
With the Authority fractured and rival blocs jostling for position and importance, Boyd finds himself thrust into the role of power broker. Victories over his foes have made him a target, bringing both allies and opponents to the negotiating table—yet every negotiation risks turning into a battle.
Even as he forges alliances and forces old enemies to bend the knee, he knows that every move must prepare the world for what is to come. His efforts among the Changed Communities spark a clash of loyalties and an unexpected chance to bring old fractures to an end. Amidst it all, he seeks to build an example of what cooperation can achieve.
As unity takes root and his influence spreads, the whispers of prophecy grow louder. His mother insists he was born for a final, impossible confrontation. And for the first time, Boyd feels ready to face it.
Will the Immortal’s intent be enough to carry him through the storm to come? Or has every step of his journey only led him to a battle not even he can survive?
