No one ever said life would be easy. After the fall of the wall, reality crashes back in as Ballister and Ambrosius are left searching for a purpose in a post knight world. A walk home late one night dredges up old memories from their childhoods, a newfound desire, and a whole lot of work for their rebuilt relationship. They just never expected that effort would come with the responsibility of a small business.

For as long as Ambrosius could remember, his mother has kept him locked away in a tower for his own safety — until one day, when he strikes up a deal with an outcasted thief and his shapeshifting sidekick to take him to go see the floating lanterns he had always dreamed of.

After he is framed for trying to sell government secrets, Ballister is disavowed from The Agency and is sent on the run. Along the way, he meets an anarchistic teenager named Nimona. With her hot pink hair and spunky personality, she is able to get him out of his funk and help try to prove him innocent. Taking down a corrupt organization is just a plus.

When a mysterious green knight shows up at Queen Valerin's court and challenges everyone to a game, her best knight Ambrosius takes it upon himself to defend her honor - and to finally, desperately prove that he is worthy of his place at court. But the game does not end as expected and Ambrosius finds himself bound by honor to meet the Green Knight again at a legendary place in exactly one year to reap what he, Ambrosius, sowed. The journey there is not what he expected, either … and will hold many revelations and twists that Ambrosius is entirely unprepared for.

Growing up, Ambrosius had heard all the cautionary tales. Be it witches, ogres, or giants, the dangers that lay outside the walls were waiting for any opening to attack them. From the moment he was born, it was his duty to defend the Realm from such dangers. But after Ballister left the Kingdom with the shapeshifter, Ambrosius found himself more and more faded every day, directionless. It got to the point where he was willing to challenge any monster to find his love once again, no matter how slim his chances of success.
He followed Ballister past the wall.
Or: Ambrosius Goldenloin goes on a fairy tale journey of self-discovery.
