The Legend Continues...
Prematurely aged by the use of a power known as vitra, Ari now heads the Users, the secretive cabal that strives to protect humanity from those who would enslave them - the gols.
The User ranks were decimated shortly after Hoodwink vanished ten years ago, and she rebuilt the group from the ground up. In that time, she'd given everything she had to the Users, and human society in general. Body. Mind. Soul. For what?
It hadn't mattered. She hadn't changed a thing. The world still died a little every day. The snowstorms worsened, the cold became colder. Human enslavement continued. The Forever Gate remained standing, hemming them all in as it always would.
And then there was The Drop, a relatively recent phenomenon that involved human beings dropping dead for no apparent reason. Not just one at a time, but hundreds throughout the city, all at once.
Society was falling apart at the seams, despite her best efforts. Despite her attempts to seize power from Jeremy, the mayor.
Ari was ready to throw in the sack and nominate her replacement. She could no longer lead the Users. She had failed. She was far too old.
And then, ten years after she last saw him, Ari receives a message from the father she believed long dead.
