Ascension David Gerspach

Ascension, it was always going to lead to this. In "Balance of War" Celecia and Dakoran fought to protect their friends and allies, while searching for a peaceful resolution to the war. In the end, they failed. Over four billion people perished and the planet was thrown into chaos.

Now, all that remains is a last-ditch effort to save those that survived and then somehow end a threat looming over the entire universe. This time, failure is not an option. Standing in the way of victory are lessons Celecia still needs to learn and a populace that has become increasingly hostile.

Dakoran embarks upon a treacherous journey to once again reunite with his love. Along the way, he must fight off the ravenous reekers, establish rapport with the Wolves of Windimere and survive the Mist of Mira.

Celecia, despondent over the time she lost with her children, wants nothing more than to spend her remaining time raising a family. Izmir's government, seeking a scapegoat for the world's demise, sets their sight upon magic in general, and Celecia in particular. Celecia is faced with a final decision: fight or flight.

And while events swirl around them, one last hope remains... Fair, and the possibility of sanctuary among the faeries. Enter the world of Verdan and learn how magic has survived time and become life's final champion. Can the peace promised in "The Fourth Age" finally be realized? And what price must be paid to bring it about?
