Ascension of the Shadow Scion - The Shadow Scion Series, #2

"Look more closely, through the blood and tears......for not everything here is as it appears."

Almost a year and a half after the decisive defeat of the Wyrmriders—and the permanent end to their atrocities across the Asaan al-Atollen's home continent of Quisillon—the devoted and dutiful Sister Malina Varkallas continues to serve at her mentor Diadra Maurian's side, unflinchingly carrying out the Reverend Mother's will while also hunting down the last few clusters of stubborn Wyrmrider rebel cells. But just when all seems right once again, the Asaan al-Atollen become targets of a mysterious killer who is capable of standing toe-to-toe with both their own magic and Malina's new powers as the Shadow Scion, a feat which puts many of the Sirens on edge and plunges them into a time of uncertainty.

Malina, wanting nothing more than to protect the Sirens, agrees to work extensively with Maurian to locate, find, and dispose of the murderer who has been heartlessly targeting Quisillon's valiant defenders, but once things go awry after she discovers their true identity, she must make a fateful decision that will change her path—and the path of the Asaan al-Atollen—forever.
