Under three full moons, Darkstalker hatches with power beyond any dragon before him. His NightWing mother and IceWing father watch as their son breaks free from his shell, unaware they have brought forth Pyrrhia's greatest threat. Meanwhile, in the SeaWing kingdom, Prince Fathom discovers his animus magic can create wonders but demands a devastating cost with each spell. A young NightWing named Clearsight peers into possible futures through her prophetic abilities and sees disaster approaching in nearly every timeline. The three dragons' paths intertwine as Darkstalker grows into his immense magical abilities. Clearsight watches her friend's choices lead toward the darkness she foresaw, while Fathom struggles with the corrupting nature of animus power. This special edition reveals the ancient origins of the evil that will one day threaten all of Pyrrhia, showing how friendship, love, and good intentions can twist into something terrible when combined with unlimited magical power.
