Prince Magnus has just witnessed torture, death, miracles during the bloody skirmishes that devastate the rebel forces. Now he must choose between family and justice, because his father, the cruel King Guy, is going to subjugate all Mithika. All Guy needs now is the Kinsmen - four elemental crystals that give divine powers to their owners. But the Blood King is not the only one hunting for ancient magical artifacts. The Kreshians join the hunt. Ashur and Amara, royal brother and sister from a wealthy kingdom beyond the Silver Sea, charm and manipulate their way to the Kindred, proving they can be more cruel than the Blood King himself. The Rebels press forward. Princess Cleo and the vengeful Jonas have led them to kill with sweetness, skill, and a secret that can control Lucia's overwhelming magic, and can use the Kindred to reclaim their fallen kingdoms. The Guardians follow Milenia from the sanctuary. They are allied with King Guy, who promises them to use Lucia to reveal the Kinsmen. There is only confidence that in these dark times, whoever has the magic will control the fate of Mithik... But the four divine elements have other plans. Translation by the group
