Synopsis[]
Following their triumph over Claudia in the Sea of the Castout, Team Zym had successfully secured Aaravos's prison. Having failed to rescue Aaravos, Claudia resorted to sacrificing the Being to ensure the resurrection spell on her father stays permanent, thus saving him from death. However, Viren has renounced dark magic all together, following a revelation, and he seeks to right past wrongs. Crestfallen, Claudia was left to ponder if she should also give up her dark practices.
While Soren, Corvus, and Azymondias searched for Zubeia, whose whereabouts are unknown, Callum and Rayla went on a separate journey to seek out the Celestial Elves at the Star Scraper.
Meanwhile, Janai tries to cope over the betrayal of Miyana, her own general, who has sworn her allegiance to Janai's exiled brother Karim, who has a stolen Sun Seed and a newly-formed army in his hands, as he seeks to restore Sol Regem, the Archdragon of the Sun, and the Old Ways to their former glory.
