A world’s hidden past is its greatest threat.

For ages, the people of Zodyioterra have lived in the light of the Zodiac Supreme, believing their world young and their peace secure. But the land has begun to whisper of a darker, older history. Ruins claw their way to the surface, and a strange word echoes through ancient texts: Jing-Ling.

At the prestigious Yirdindale Academy, the wise rabbit Champion Master Yllugwyn and her scholars race to decipher the warning before it’s too late. Their research is shattered by a brutal betrayal: Ceryxio, the noble Dog Champion, now corrupted by a vile force, attacks the Academy, demanding the secrets be destroyed.

The only hope lies with the Hero’s Guild in the dazzling metropolis of Mythlight. As the Overseers: legendary veterans like the fiery Carlee and enigmatic Krysalia, receive the desperate survivors, they realize the horrifying truth: the corruption has already begun, and it wears the face of their most trusted friends.

To survive, old heroes and new must uncover the truth behind the Jing-Ling and the corruption. But some secrets are buried for a reason, and this one could unravel the very essence of magic itself.

A sweeping epic of ancient magic, shattered loyalties, and the courage it takes to face a darkness that wears a familiar face.
