Description
This summer, the future of Marguerite and Hosh will be decided. After four years of competing for the crown, the people of Lenacia are eager to acclaim the victors, who will become the new rulers.
To prove they'll make excellent successors to Una and Usi, the twins will have to win the final trials, which have become even more difficult. Upon discovering the challenges ahead, Marguerite and her brother find it hard to believe that the evaluators are once again endangering the aspirants' lives. And yet! Their journey to Octavy, in the very heart of the abyss, will require them to draw on all the energy and courage they possess. This city, where darkness reigns supreme, is home to an austere people who aren't known for being kind to strangers... Will Una's children manage to work together with their cousins to return safely from this trial?
Meanwhile, in Lénacie, Pascale takes great risks to rise through the ranks of the SPAL. Marguerite has tried to dissuade her friend from continuing her search for the leader of the secret society, but in vain. In Pascale's eyes, it is unthinkable that the children of Usi should rule the kingdom she loves so much.
What sacrifices will the twins of Lénacie be forced to make to prevent their city from falling under the rule of malicious sirens?
