Tamynaen Jacob is no ordinary half elf, even by Astyerian''s standards. Born in the Dead Lands of the largest port city in Astȅndre, TJ has been left with the task of raising himself and his little sister''s - which isn''t easy with the challenging caste system, addict mother, and his own inner demons running rampant in his life.

That''s all before the night he dies and his disbelief in the gods is altered forever.

What TJ doesn''t know is the Gods have been playing a game since before his world was created. As one round ends, another begins and TJ is the prize. The only question is how long can the winner hold him?

The Shadow - her shadow is the one constant in Ciara''s life she never wanted. It took everything from her. Her home, her parents, her friends, everything she ever owned. And then it even took him. Sean. The one who had given up a future just for her. But his death gave Ciara back the chance to fulfill the dream he had for her - to graduate college and live.

As Ciara settles in to her first year of normal school, where she has friends, the inevitable happens as she knew it would. But this time she isn''t going down without a fight, but to finally break free, Ciara will need to solve the mystery of her Shadow and what it wants with her.

They stood on the edge to the end. Watching one world fall, as another came into being - a second chance for The Three Brothers to protect what they held most dear.

And protect they would - each in their own way, as Atropos brought more into their fold. Yet, a feeling of unrest haunted the first angel. Tamynaen Jacob felt it in the core of his being and he wasn''t alone. For lies don''t stay hidden forever; the truth will be always be discovered.

As the shock waves of discovery reverberate through Haven, someone best kept sleeping will slowly begin to awaken.

The prophecy has begun, tying TJ down for the first time in centuries. Tying him to two young women who hold the fate of Islandrial in their hands. Tying him to two women who have no memory of him, even though he remembers them both so vividly. He wishes he didn''t. He has wished it a thousand times over. Has tried to forget that day, that night, her. Now, he has no choice, but to face her. His choice to make sure she lives this time - that they both do, because without them, without her, making a choice, uninfluenced by Atropos, they are all doomed.

It shouldn''t be that hard, it shouldn''t take that long. Only a handful of months, a year at most - the blink of an eye to a fallen angel. At least that''s what TJ tells himself, but a lot can happen in a few months, like getting trapped in storms, being chased by Mitchie''s Shadar''s, forgotten warnings, and misplaced memories coming to light.
