[5] Following a successful pickpocketing, thieves Jak (Darren Barnet) and Luna return to their hideout in the city of Seren, only to find their friend Caleb has been severely injured.

As Kirkan mentors Jak to draw magic from the Shrouded Realm, she explains that Sandrakk has already forced the armies of Oremen, K'ley, and Kalthus into the "Wound," a pit at the center of Aveum.

To avoid Sandrakk's power enlarging the Wound, the Immortals seek Kirkan's exiled predecessor, Grand Magnus Thaddeus, for a potential weakness of the binding stone.

Traveling to the sky islands of Oremen, Devyn and Jak meet Kenzie, who leads them to Thaddeus' journals that reveal his current location in Kalthus' Mount Dresnyr.

After defeating Sandrakk's new lieutenant, Morbane, Jak and Luna find the Wound expanding from the magic used to restrict Aveum's abilities.

Upon boarding the enemy ship, Jak finds Sandrakk and Kirkan collaborating on a plan to travel to the Shrouded Realm and kill the Pentacade.

After Jak convinces Zendara that the Aelori can repair the Wound, she stakes her right to lead the Immortals as Queen of Kalthus, as Kirkan surrendered Lucium to Rasharn.
