Magic is unraveling—and power alone won’t stop it.
Wellsprings are falling, corruption is spreading, and Marigold Grimley is caught at the center of a crisis no one was prepared for.
As the magical world fractures, so does the fragile balance between duty, desire, and the four heirs bound to protect it. Keane is holding reality together at a dangerous cost.
Cyrus is learning that restraint can be stronger than domination. Elio is shedding the masks he can no longer hide behind.
And Marigold must decide whether love is a liability—or the only thing strong enough to save them all.
When the truth emerges—that the enemy isn’t just a man, but a system that refuses to die—the heirs face an impossible choice: fight for control, or change how magic itself survives.
Because this war won’t be won by conquest. Only by harmony. Only by choosing each other.
The final book in the Wickem Academy series.
