The Tournament of Ten Islands is about to begin, and once again I’m determined to lead our foursome to victory. But beyond the arena, the dragons need a cure for Ashen Sickness, and the key to it is my blood. Which means those who have already tried to use or destroy me won’t stop. Just like the revolutionaries who have set out to wipe out the entire dragon kind. And now I must win the Tournament, punish the guilty, and stop the criminals—while also figuring out whether I’ll remain in TalMirene beside the person I love. Because sometimes it’s the crucial link that decides the fate of the entire chain.
