When the past comes searching for Uriah, it not only finds him but forces him to once again take up the mantle of immortal Magistrate. With the help of his eldest son Reiner, he must journey north, beyond the mountains, and once again walk among the elder races to find a way to save Avalice from the calamity that nearly saw the continent wiped from existence. Still weary from his impossibly long life of strife and death, will he be able to stop the very forces that wiped out his entire Order?
