Publisher Marketing: After the defeat of Sharmaka KyLee and Devon settle into living quietly and happily in Onez. However, after the death of KyLee's friend May, they are thrust into a world of madness, misused magic, wizards, a crystal dragon, and the discovery of the second Mystic of the New Breed. May's only son Javas goes mad after the death of his mother and blames KyLee for not saving the elderly woman with the power she possesses. After he attempts for murder KyLee, he is severely maimed and disappears into the forests of Onez. Javas is taken to a castle high in the Neza Mountains where he is reluctantly nursed back to health by Master Wizard Valeedus. He heals Javas's physical wounds with the help of crystals, but is unable to heal the madness within his mind. After stealing the Master Wizard's power, Javas kidnaps Devon in what he feels is revenge for his mother's death. Accompanied by Toran, KyLee braves the climb to the peak where the castle sits in a desperate attempt to save the man she loves and the balance she needs. Roardel and Gordel are left behind to protect Onez and its people from whatever Javas may send their way. And as KyLee fights for the lives of others, they too must struggle to survive.
