A century ago, humanity consigned its past to the Pyres of Knowledge. Since then, the world has been dying from a magic that has inexplicably turned to poison. The lands have grown barren, and each night the howls of cursed creatures creep closer to cities and villages.

But to ignore the past is only to hasten its return. History answers by drawing into its orbit those whose lives already follow its curves: Ilvan, a penniless fixer haunted by memories that are not his own. Rodney, a conspirator willing to overthrow his own blood to impose his legacy. Lorna, a sorceress forced to confront heresies that challenge everything she knows of her art.

Though strangers to one another, their paths converge, alongside other lost souls, towards what humanity tried to erase in the flames. And when the veil finally lifts, who will strike the final blow upon a world already on the brink: magic, or mankind itself?
