Herata, the newly chosen Sea Priestess of Atlantis, learns that the Earth itself may be in danger from the insatiable greed of Atlantis, which fuels its mighty empire from the blood of the very Earth.
At risk of her own life, Herata struggles against greed, indifference, and malevolent power to awaken the Empire of Atlantis to its danger, before it becomes too late. She is helped -- or hindered? -- by a friend she makes in the glittering court of the Sea Kings, Prince Branek of the island colony of Lacaon. He swears his loyalty -- but does he really support her cause?
When Herata finds out, she must act on that knowledge, and quickly. But will she be too late?
