Ean Sangrave’s friends are gone.
At least, his human ones are.
Zin, as always, is by his side. Years of advice and getting Ean out of trouble has earned him the title of Ean’s closest friend, Joining them now is Azalea the Yulari, another creature from the Abyss that feeds off the emotions of her victims to the point of death. Summoned in a moment of jealousy, Azalea would have killed Ean’s friends if he had not stopped her in time. So how do Bran and Jaslen pay him back for saving their lives? By running off with all of their supplies, leaving Ean with his imp and a fragile alliance with an alluring but deadly Yulari.
Ean is now at a crossroads. Does he continue the quest originally placed on him and his friends to find a way to save Rottwealth from the monster that has taken over the mine? Or does he follow the advice of his companions from the Abyss and learn to control his growing power? The Healer’s apprentice inside of him hopes to somehow do both.
Regardless of which quest he ultimately decides to follow, its Ean’s inner turmoil that worries him the most. The dark power of the Abyss is spreading through his body at an alarming rate. The tattoos that represent the power continue to grow across his body while dark dreams invade his mind. Can he hold off the darkness growing inside of him, or will Ean give in to the power and become the tyrant he has feared?

The three of them walked on in silence again, with Zin shooting daggers with his eyes at the Yulari while Ean pretended not to notice. "Here you are," she said, spreading her arms wide. "Delivered from despair and starvation by your wonderful Yulari guide. Just a little bit further and we'll be out of these woods and hopefully to more populated areas." She flashed Ean a smile and patted him on the head. "Not that I've
should just die off, if you ask me. The world is becoming too coddled with medicines and magic making everything easier." Another person demeaning being a Healer, Ean could barely believe it. Did no one appreciate his profession outside of Rottwealth and Rensen? "Weak?" Ean couldn't help the anger that laced his voice. "You call someone with a sword or knife wound, bleeding out on the ground, weak? Or someone bitten by a poisonous spider or snake weak?" Looking around for a moment, he pointed

She stood there, facing him, her face barely visible in the low level of light peaking in from the outside. Ean strained to catch her expression, but the combination of moonlight and the alcohol made it impossible. When the Yulari finally responded, her voice was low and serious.
