“ALL I ASK IS THAT YOU DIE FOR ME.”

Eris Miserian finally musters the courage to ask the high priest Hubris for help, only to be confronted with a disturbing truth: Nobody in her situation has ever returned to their worlds alive. To make matters worse, Medea reveals that the principles of causality will not release her until she fulfills her role in this story as Helena’s murderer! Refusing to accept such a fate, Eris begins gathering reliable allies to aid in her escape—allies, as the normally distant Eris quickly learns, who are crucial in a game of politics designed to chain her down.
