The Crown no longer decides who is remembered. Now they must decide what comes next.
The First Crown is broken. The Forgotten have returned. And the seven roads now bind together a world that was once deliberately erased from history.
For Elian and Caelia, victory brings consequences neither of them expected.
With old kingdoms struggling to accept the people history tried to erase, unrest spreads across newly restored borders. Crownkeepers still move in the shadows, ancient claims threaten to ignite new wars, and the fragile peace Elian and Caelia fought to create may demand something from them neither ever wanted.
A crown.
As Elian is forced to confront the responsibility he has spent years refusing, Caelia must decide whether loving him means standing beside him in a life she never imagined for herself. Their bond deepens amid war, memory, and the weight of everything they have survived-and together they must determine whether power can become something other than the weapon it has always been.
But the First Crown was not the end.
Beyond the seven known roads, something ancient is stirring.
A road that should not exist.
A city that remembers.
And a forgotten history that may be far more dangerous than anything they have restored.
Meanwhile, an impossible change has already begun-one neither Elian nor Caelia knows to look for.
More action, deeper romance, ancient magic, forgotten kingdoms, and dangerous revelations collide in What the Forgotten Came For, Book Four of The Hollow Chronicles.
Some things were forgotten because history failed to remember them.
Others were forgotten because someone made certain they would never return.
