When Rachef and Tazasheena kidnap Noriko, Izark is forced to face the fact that the only way to save her may be to do exactly what they’ve been trying to avoid: fulfill the prophecy of The Awakening.

With their enemies lying in wait just beyond the city walls, and Noriko close to death, Izark may not have time to figure it all out before it’s too late!
