ir journey, Hazel, Arael and Thalia boldly venture into the depths of The Subconscious Forest. But a dark force lurks within, waiting in the shadows of the trees... and their minds. While The Conscious Realm faces its own harrowing challenges, the trio must battle far more than Nightmares to save it. Thalia is forced to face the reality of a Guardian's burden, as well as the truth behind the Fantasy legends of her childhood. Arael questions how capable he is of protecting those he loves, and struggles with which promises he ought to keep. Hazel, ever closer to the pendant's magic, and further from home than they'd thought possible, hardly even recognizes the person they're becoming; can they truly save the world? Or will they succumb to darkness themself, leaving behind more destruction than they can fathom?
