Great change comes only through great struggle. With the abolition of the Blood Order, the Covenant became a battlefield between purebloods who dream of regaining power, and half-bloods who want freedom and equality. Who will win? Meanwhile, Seth and Josie understand that the death of Hyperion is just a delay. The other Titans are getting closer. Seth needs to teach Josie how to fight, unlock her powers, and find other demigods. But it’s not easy, because he’s so painfully drawn to her. Is it love or... obsession with her ether? The line is thin, passion is increasingly difficult to distinguish from thirst. The gods see his desperate internal struggle. They know: the mad Apollyon is more terrible than the raging Titans. They feel: the darkness is calling Set again. The paths of the past can become the roads of the future, and even Josie’s tenderness will not save him. What will Seth choose - love or power?
