Darkness brought them together, the Path will tear them apart
.
General Sato's orders to quell a rebel uprising have become a quest to cleanse the sentinels of the corruption eating them from within. Despite the virtue of his charge, Sato can't shake the feeling that every boil lanced from the order pollutes his own spirit. With every effort he makes, he finds his steps leading him farther from the Path, and he begins to wonder if there's a way back.
After bending the knee, the Bandit King is no more. Now, Beast is free to focus his deadly talents on a new foe. But the enemy which threatens Samas is like none he's faced before. He'll need new friends and new skills if he hopes to continue his fight.
Shin's power grows. With each passing day she moves farther away from the girl who hid from the sentinels in the attic. Now, the dark realm is her ally, a tool with which she can reshape the world to protect the innocent. A tool that threatens to consume her every time she uses it.
The Maramans lost at Dahl, but they have wounded Samas in ways few could imagine. To save Samas, Sato, Shin, and Beast will need to unite, even as the Path tears them apart.
