The moment of truth arrives when everyone must decide why they lived—and for what they can die. Incredible forces gather around the Sunken Crab, a barren island in the middle of the seas of Eviál.

Here, death is now only a step toward a new, happy life. This is where the story of the magician Kair Laeda ends—the necromancer NeyaSyty, the warrior Fess, so unlike a fairy tale, because everything told in it is true.
