The Forgotten Gate (The Shadow Curse #3)

A damaged vessel. The ancient gates to the realms. And the deities sworn to destroy them at all cost…

Cirith returns to his home with an unconscious Ara in his arms and discovers the treachery of his goddess he swore to cherish and protect. Distraught, he seeks to reconcile with Rakeva, and instead is punished, bringing him closer to Zira as she nurses him through grief and confusion.

When Raethin finds his way back to the druid fortress, he’s met by the painful reality that everything has changed drastically, even himself. As Ara heals from her wounds, both internally and externally, Raethin learns that she’s not the same princess that he once disliked and ridiculed but a matured woman, budding into her role as a leader and protector of the realms.

The last several weeks has hardened Ara, and with a new bond that she must accept, Ara now faces her greatest fears—but not alone. Together, Ara, Raethin, and their companions seek after the gates that bridge the realms. They must stop Aeskrius from opening the portals and unleashing his darkness to the rest of Thraes.

Will Ara and Raethin succeed? Or will the Void consume them, body and soul?
