The Trials of Descent

Ian thought two affinities was the height of power. He was wrong. After five grueling years of training under Ancient Ash, Ian and Maria return to Karanos, ready to take on Achemiss. Hidden within an unreachable plane, the elusive necromancer is their ultimate target. To confront Achemiss, Ian must infiltrate the black faction, a task requiring him to attend the Hall of Ascension’s gathering. He adopts a new persona—a powerful master emerging from ages of seclusion. Joined by Maria and a new ally, Ian finds himself a surprise player in the Hall's newest game. While competing, he must also validate his disguised identity to all. A single mistake could reveal his secrets and spell his doom. Ian must show everyone the power of an ancient.
