I was the land. I was the air. I was the sea. I was all of it - everywhere - and as I inhaled then let the tormented sorrow screech from my lungs, the world buckled and broke beneath my feet.I was burning alive...And the world would burn with me. A century after the Great Destruction that devastated civilization, Mizuki Altherr lives within a small village struggling to survive beneath the shadow of a great mountain.

In a desperate bid to end the cycle of violence and defy the Elders' iron rule, Mizuki and Aiden set forth on a daring journey into the Wild - where together they discover a secret that shatters their understanding of the village and reveals the truth behind the horrors that left the world in ruin.
