He’s now leagues away from Teal and Malagant and his health is fading fast. However Ben soon finds out that he isn’t alone, but as he continues on his journey and gets to know this strange elf who has saved him… he soon wishes that he was. Meanwhile, on the prophecy’s orders, Malagant and Teal head to Birch, with only the desperate hope that Ben will met them there, fuelling their steps. They are now placing their waning hope in Anagin, Malagant’s father and past prophecy walker, to shed some light on their disastrous journey. A journey that is being guided by a demigod that has gone missing, and directed by a prophecy book that offers them nothing but the occasional line of vague scrawl. And as time goes on and strange things start happening in Birch and the Lazarius Plains, it becomes clear to Anagin that things are not what they seem - and that not just Alcove, but all of Elron, may be in grave danger. less
