Darkness will fall before Valko is brought to a new dawn.

Adjusting to her new position on the team, Scotty Sedgewig finally feels like she belongs in the Acros Raiders. When an apostle of Cassius, god of chaos and deceit, comes into her life, she is quick to brush off everything he says as lies. She learns a sickening truth and spirals when she has to make a choice: go against everything she's ever fought for to get what she wants, or keep on her path to bring those who wronged her to justice. Among her struggles, she finds answers and comfort in the last person she expects-a mortal enemy.

Hawks Halcomb is back in the Black Glove Scouts after deceiving the Acros Raiders for years.

He is forced to pick a side: keep supporting High Priestess Tapscott's Castist Regime to make his father, his god, and his country proud, or go against everything he's ever known to atone for his sins.

Will their choices align them on the same path, or will they find themselves fated to be on opposite sides of the war?
