Long ago, the city of Cynth prospered and thrived due to its mystical power - Lumara. But when the Etheri, the wielders of this power, disappeared, Cynth began to die. And in doing so, sank completely underground with only one purpose - to survive.
For sixteen years, the city has remained dormant and forgotten by those on the surface. Until a young farmboy and reckless thief, Adan, uncovers Cynth's location while being chased by The Forces of his hometown, Greenblade, for his crimes.
Now whisked away from his home, Adan realizes that what he has stolen could potentially destroy the world. With the help of a young rebel, Dana Nadir, Adan reveals secrets of not just Cynth's past, but his own.
