Gatekeeper's Revelation

She hated imagining Derry's grief. She hated even more that it was her fault.

Kyer is gutted by what happened at the Tree of Life, and at leaving her friends behind to face it.

Struggling in vain to free her mother from Golgathaur's new, impregnable prison, Kyer finally has the chance to ask why her mother abandoned her twenty years ago.

The truth sends Kyer reeling, and she is forced to flee, plagued by guilt for all that has befallen the people of Rydris. Yet again Kyer has left her mother behind to suffer the wrath of Golgathaur, whose desire to bend Kyer to his will escalates.

Kyer has never felt more alone, nor as hopeless.

Golgathaur's new strategy is to take the one thing Kyer cannot afford to lose.
