Thundercloud is the perfect leader of a perfect world, but he has no control over the sickles. A year has passed since Rowan disappeared from all radars. He became an urban legend. He executes judgment on the fallen sickles by destroying them with fire. Stories about him are told in whispers, his fame spread throughout the continent. Sickle Anastasia carries out weeding with constant compassion for her chosen ones. She openly challenges the sickles of the “new order.” But when her life begins to be threatened and her weeding methods are called into question, it becomes clear that not everyone in the Order is ready for change. Old and new enemies unite, and rot spreads ever wider in the Order. Rowan and Citra are losing hope. Will Storm Cloud intervene? Or will he simply watch from the sidelines as the ideal world collapses?
