The Torch that Ignites the Stars
Arcane Ascension, Book 3After concluding their first year at Lorian Heights, Corin and his friends catch a train from their native Valia to the distant country of Caelford.
For most, this would be a simple vacation. Corin has other plans: Meet Anabelle Farren, the eccentric owner of Farren Labs, and learn about artificial attunements. Seek out Warren Constantine, a previous Arbiter, for training and a potential alliance. Find the visage Ferras herself to seek a cure for Sera's condition. Of course, Corin is Corin, and there's absolutely no chance he's going to be able to stick to a list. Even if he miraculously developed a sense of focus, he isn't the only one with plans.... The Blackstone Bandit. Everyone's favorite mysterious book entity. The aforementioned Farren. A vacationing professor. The mirror of a figure from Keras' past. When their plots intersect, Corin and his friends are, predictably, stuck at the center. It's going to be a long vacation.
