"Every face a shell, Encasing a priceless pearl Therein the truer heart may dwell, Hidden from the world."
In the seaside city of Cathatiur, Alcione continues her mission to find the five stones and rescue her family from the land of the dead. But the loss of a friend has made her doubt herself. How much can she sacrifice for her goals? How much should she?
When an opportunity arises for Tremi to find out the truth about his family, Alcie is happy to have a different quest to focus on. The search leads her to Capanos, a man everyone tells her is evil. But Capanos understands her grief as no one else does.
Meanwhile, Seffina tries to protect her friends by drawing the Arkos's attention to the mysterious magians. However, every step she takes leads her closer to danger. With the stakes higher than ever, Seffina and Alcie must follow their hearts to save the land, and those they love.
Erica Converso is a former librarian, and forever champion of stories. She loves chocolate, animals, anime, musicals, and lots and lots of books - though not necessarily in that order.

She lives in New York with her husband and two hyperactive cats.
