The Avatars once ruled through crystal power, long life and weapons that made them seem divine. Their civilisation is fading, their numbers are small and the peoples they dominated no longer accept the old order without question.

When an enemy from the Avatars' past returns with greater strength, survival requires alliances across the divisions created by empire. Warriors and mystics must decide what deserves to be preserved from a fallen civilisation, while the final conflict exposes the arrogance, sacrifice and buried violence beneath the memory of the Great Song.
