Long before Deston was born, the gods decided he was going to be the match to drive away the darkness. But Deston doesn't want to be a hero. He just wants to fit in and be accepted as one of the fae and live happily ever after in Tir na-nÓg. Grossard has a dream too—to destroy Deston, Oseron and the fae and turn Tir na-nÓg into a dark, barren wasteland, along with the rest of the world. After months of running away and denying who he is, Deston finally relents and comes to terms with the fact that he is the only one who can stop Grossard; for he is a being of two worlds and his human side is what will allow him to do what the fae cannot—kill Grossard. Every minute he delays the inevitable puts his loved ones in greater danger and Grossard one step closer to his dream. To find Grossard and finish what the gods sent him to do, Deston teams up with his former nemesis, Rellik, and sets off on another epic journey. It's the final showdown between light and dark, good and evil, but even if Deston wins, it could very well cost him the very thing he wants most in the world—to become a real fae.
