World of Yesod

The chosen ones have reached the kingdom of Fire, where the fourth and final Key of the Power awaits them. Before they can retrieve the final amulet and complete their mission, though, the Company of Seekers will again be put to the test: this time it is Mayim and Esh who have to find their way through pain, loss and treachery. While the Enemy's plan to destroy the Power emerges from the past, and its threat grows as the chosen ones come closer to the truth, their journey helps them uncover new evidence of the importance of their mission. From the gigantic Baar of Hot Well to the dark Zalyan of Slowfire, new friends contribute to their understanding of the truth, while the extraordinary magic of the Keys begins to reveal itself to support their mission. That same magic, though, could keep the Power out of Yesod for ever. When the Gorge of Flame releases its treasure, the chosen ones will hold the destiny of the four kingdoms in their hands.

The Keys of the Power have been retrieved, but the mission is not yet over and now reaches its climax. The chosen ones are more aware than ever that everything they have experienced and faced could prove useless and that the prophecy might demand the ultimate sacrifice from them. The fortress of Atai guards secrets that the chosen ones must uncover before they can bring life back to their dying world, and the Enemy will go to any lengths to prevent them. Through the realms of dreams, at the junction of life and death, Avir finds the answers he was searching for, while his friends must face an old enemy looking for a terrible revenge. A revenge that will also affect Avir, and could take him away from his friends for ever. The Errant must decide again what part he will play in the final decisive battle; he is supported by the noble Se'ara, "Smiling eyes", and the great wisdom of a people remembered only in legend, the Gliders of the Mountains.
