After the vampire witch Archoness Vexis orchestrates a devastating betrayal that destroys his order, Davi wanders through war-torn ruins as one of the few surviving Whitelighters. When he encounters bandits threatening a mysterious fae woman, his intervention sets in motion events that will change both their destinies forever.
Hunted by monstrous creatures and poisoned by demon venom, Davi faces death in the ruins of his order's sacred temple. When the enigmatic Asra offers her aid, the healing ritual creates an unexpected bond between light and water magic, and each other…
Davi's search for surviving Whitelighters leads him to Stackmore, where he battles pit devils in a desperate marketplace fight. As ancient prophecies about "water and light" reveal deeper meaning, Davi and Asra realize their union may be key to either salvation or destruction.
At his lowest point, Davi and Asra find brief respite from war in the fae realm's magical beauty. But even this haven isn't immune to corruption, and when Archoness Vexis herself arrives with overwhelming force, their newfound sanctuary becomes a battlefield.
With Davi captured, Asra infiltrates the enemy stronghold. Finding a chalice containing the tortured essence of her fae sisters, she learns the true scope of Vexis's plans, and makes a desperate choice that will determine the fate of both their worlds.
In the climactic confrontation within Vexis's fortress, the true meaning of the ancient prophecy is finally revealed. As corruption spreads across realms, only the ultimate union of water and light can create the power needed to end the Archoness's reign of terror.
