The war is over. But the fight for the world is only beginning. The bloody civil war that ruined the country is lost, and Dazlar, last of the Royal Guards, returns weary and alone to the village of his birth, hoping for peace at last. The war was only the first move, however, in a terrible plot now launched by the new ruler of the land. Lord Protector Cranmer has discovered a frightening truth at the heart of the world, and means to exploit it for his own dark purposes. The gruesome discovery that Dazlar makes during his fateful homecoming will place him at the very centre of Cranmer's plans, and the reluctant knight will be called upon to fight once more, alongside a strange girl from another world. But this time the stakes are much higher than mere territory and rulership. This time, the battle is for existence itself.
