The world as it was once known is gone; diminished into three surviving cities and the adapted beliefs that divide them. To the North is the medieval kingdom of Arcadia. To the West exists the archaic wastelands of Licentia. To the Southeast lies the thriving utopian society of Avalon. The last recorded year was 2015, when the war that destroyed nations finally ended. It took centuries for the few remaining survivors to band together and form new societies. Now the only thing keeping these fractured societies together is their religion – the belief that the war that destroyed the previous population was necessary. For Alstyne, this is all she has been taught. Kept hidden from the rest of the world, the burning curiosity to seek knowledge has not been quenched like all those surrounding her. Together, Alstyne and her sole friend Sumpter must overcome their greatest challenge: escaping the culture they were born into in search of answers. When they choose their path, they must work together to overcome the obstacles thrown at them by the separate factions that live outside the cities’ laws. But when the friends find themselves separated, they must learn to trust those who betrayed them for the sake of their continued survival.
