The uncertainty is terrifying. If her thoughts arenโt her own, how much damage did the devices cause before they were stopped? And if sheโs right - why is Tarkus lying to her? Why would he make her doubt her sanity?
Kaira needs time to recover, to process everything thatโs happened. But thereโs no time. She and Tarkus are pulled into helping a group of escaped slaves fighting to stay free, and the danger and chaos push everything else into the background.
Until the question about the Wanderer resurfaces - sharper and more urgent than ever. Because, this time, thousands of lives depend on the answer.
And if Kaira canโt trust her own mind, how can she help anyone at all?
