For nineteen years, the land of Arcani has known peace, ever since the banishment of The Revenant, a powerful Magi, to the realm of the Insomnium. But the arrival of two orphaned babies at the Gideon Monastery ignites the catalyst for The Revenant's return. Now, Caleb Caine, a young Disciple of Gideon with a dangerous thirst for knowledge, is about to embark on four trials that will determine his mastery of the magical Arcani Externa. Behind the scenes, dark forces conspire to alter his future - and that of the entire land - forever. Caleb's trials take him across the land, alongside his loyal friend Dunstan and ambitious rival Axerius, encountering elves, dwarves, and merfolk, while discovering the power of the four internal and four external magics that make up the eight Arcani. As the young disciple delves deeper into the history books, he discovers that not only are they not always accurate, but even his own life is not quite what he believes it to be. Secrets unravel, and forces seek to control his destiny at every step with Caleb's thirst for knowledge and power forcing him to decide: should he prevent The Revenant's return... or become the herald of his rise?
