After the events of the Massacre, Zélie and Amari finally manage to bring back magic to the land of Orïsha. But it turns out that it is not only the maji who have the magic back, the monarchy family and the nobles also have magic again. Zélie's ideal of providing freedom for the maji had to be dashed by the monarchy. Together with the military, the monarchy is now as powerful as the maji. Zélie had to fight for the leadership of the monarchy to fall to Amari, the daughter of the monarchy who had the same ideals as Zélie. Unfortunately, Amari betrays Zélie's trust and the girl has to lose her loved ones. Her heart is now broken, torn between continuing her lofty ideals for Orïsha or going away from living a peaceful life on her own.
