The first steps on Demor's path have been taken. The secrets of Deligrat and playing with other people's destinies lead to inevitable consequences. He continues to lose allies, friends and students, but does not deviate from his plan. The Fighters of the Lonely Mountain are fighting at the limit of their strength, defending the Sphere of Origins. The war on Asmera is inevitably heading towards defeat, and Deligrat's enemies continue to descend on Larex, wanting to put an end to the last of the Demors, each pursuing their own goals. Will he have enough strength to cope with them? Are the people he found in the new World enough to resist to an enemy who has seen the birth of the known Universe? What can he oppose to an enemy who cannot be destroyed? Who else will he sacrifice in the hope of reaching the end? Or is everything much more complicated, and Demor Deligrat, succumbing to madness and the Abyss, wants to destroy the very concept of life?
