It seems Torl's Journey was only the beginning of a lifelong battle to regain what was lost in his parents' lifetime. Having been forced to claim his hereditary rights as the First Seat of the High Council for the Free Colonial System, Torl finds himself beset by enemies known and unknown as he attempts to change this realm into what it was intended to be. With Lia and Seala by his side, he begins the process of pulling the masters together and rebuilding their skills and strength, but the political and corporate powers that have run the realm for many solar cycles align against him and soon he finds himself fighting more than political battles.
