Tasceron and its Emperor have fallen and, having tapped into the Crow, Galen is charged with a force beyond anything he or his apprentice Raffi, has ever known. But there is a rumor that the heiress to the throne still lives, so when he receives a message from the Makers urging him to find the Interrex—the child of the last great Emperor—he knows the keepers are tantalisingly close to revolution.
The Heiress' life is in grave danger, especially from the Watch, and Galen and Raffi must race to find and protect her.

The planet of Anara has been abandoned by its creators and is crumbling into devastation. Amidst this chaos, there is a group of people called the Order, who's role it is to find lost pieces of technology, called Relics, and hopefully reverse their disintegrating world.
Relic Master, Galen, and his apprentice, Raffi are among those hunted by the Watch, an organisation that rules Anara and its people without mercy. Raised from a young child within the confines of the Watch, it is all Carys has ever known. Now she is beholden to spy for them, fiercely persuing Galen and Raffi.
The only hope for the planet and its people—both new and ancient—is if the Relic Master and his apprentice can avoid capture and find the ultimate relic that will save their world.
