Darkness veils the sight. The Final Battle is imminent. The ruler of the Dark has escaped the prison that has held him for centuries and this time he will not fail. The Ninth shall lead them with Light's Aid beside. Tolen knows he's the last hope for both Hidden and human kind. But as the prophecy unfolds, and hidden truth is revealed, he must accept that the reality of his and Macy's entwined destinies is not at all what he'd come to believe. Faced with the task of removing the veil that has shrouded demons and monsters from human eyes, Tolen and Macy are tempted to ignore the prophecy and find another way. Because while it may have been destiny that brought them together, it was love that united them, and the path ahead may require a sacrifice neither of them are willing to make. To death or victory in the coming tide.
