Lord Sohkan lost thousands of miles from any way to return to his campaign against Aninkara. On his quest to return to the known world, he finds an ancient deity that he thought was a legend that only slows his desire to see an ancient gateway to other worlds hidden someplace among Aninkara's abandoned ancient cities. The leadership of Aninkara, liberated from Sohkan's empire, demonstrates remarkable resilience as they begin the arduous task of rebuilding and aligning the realms. However, their efforts are soon tested as the empire discovers a new way to reach them. Charaty, who wields an ancient power, has been missing since the last battle. Her friends waited months for her to return only to find out she cannot use her powers. They must once again rely on uniting the remaining realms to save Aninkara.
