One rescue complete. Forced onto an unwanted path. Tytan and the Moeru-hi fight back.

Saving Rair had a steep price; Tytan and RJ are separated from their loved ones and only have a short time to recover before they must embark on an even more dangerous mission.

Racing back to Kraydon to save the sacred Lanthian, Tytan is brought to the razor's edge of sanity by the Mara's torture of Sin and Anders. Time is again running out for the Bright Lord and those he loves.

'To kill a god, you must become a god,' echoes in his mind. There's only one problem...

To save everyone, to achieve apotheosis, Tytan must first die. For good.
