A prophecy handed down through countless generations of vamps and witches has been proven to be accurate, so far. Scarlett matches the description of the One who holds the fate of the world in her hands, and her upcoming 21st birthday is supposedly when the world can end; if Scarlett fails to intervene. Unfortunately, the ancient parchment depicting exactly what she is to save the world from, or how she even can, failed to survive the ravages of time. With a week left before her birthday the Sanctuary is destroyed, and the elders within are slain, leaving Scarlett to solve an age-old mystery. Her only ally, her childhood bully who tormented her to no end, Kara. Stranded in rural Montana, with wolves lurking in the surrounding forests, Scarlett and Kara find themselves at war with an army of immortals tasked with murdering them. Their master, the world's first and only sorcerer, has a single goal: let the modern world burn so he can remake it as he sees fit, full of soulless slaves. From the corruption in the Sanctuary to the devastation wrought upon her in the foothills, Scarlett must keep her wits about her all the while keeping her hearts passion at bay, discovering her true power, pulling off a feat that will echo through ages, and stopping the last Atlantean before it's too late.

After Atlantis seemingly destroyed itself, the Raven-the famed mercenary leader of men who kept her true identity hidden from the world-must reveal herself to discover what is plaguing the city she came to plunder. A silver arrowhead pried from a young man's back, garish murders in the streets, a cover-up by the king, and rumors of creatures roaming the night peak the Raven's adventurous curiosity. Alone in the city, and without her force to command, she forms an alliance with a pair of master thieves, a self-proclaimed world's greatest tactician, and a sword for hire whose yet to be bested in battle. An attack at the city gates reveals the architect of the disturbances, the last Atlantean, and the Raven vows to put an end to his sorcerous plague. The last Atlantean, Xanatos, has a single goal: obtain immortality as he carves out his kingdom, and he'll use all the sorcery of Atlantis to obtain it. Now, the Raven must battle abominations the likes of which have not been seen before, and deal with her attraction to one of her motley band, Lucius. Whose chivalry gives her hope that not all men think entirely with their loins. From the corrupt city guard to the devastation wrought upon her army in the foothills, the Raven must keep her wits about her all the while keeping her heart's passions at bay, pulling off a heist that will echo through the ages, and stopping the last Atlantean before it's too late.
