I'd always sensed something peculiar about the reclusive Evergreen Academy, tucked deep in the woods of my hometown. But I never could have imagined it was a college for magical botanists—and that I am one of them. An invitation to the academy opens up a whole new world of wonder, yet my plant affinity powers remain elusive, and my scientific training is far behind that of my peers. When I'm assigned a tutor, Callan Rhodes, a powerful descendant of the academy's founders, I'm baffled by his willingness to help me.

Ever since enrolling at Evergreen Academy last year, I have struggled to belong in the elite world of plant magic and affinity powers. And thanks to a curse tied to a decision I made on the spring equinox, I'm further from fitting in than ever. When I'm invited to join a mission to uncover a long-lost magical artifact, it feels like my chance to prove myself—and help protect the academy, which appears to be under threat by the increasingly present Magical Botanical Board of Regents.

With the threat of a second cataclysm bearing down on them, Matt and his allies double their efforts to climb the tower, juggling personal responsibilities, new players, unexpected assistance from unlikely sources, all while weighing the insidious possibility of threats from within.

Ci sono vittorie che portano dentro il seme della propria rovina. E a volte, per sconfiggere il buio, bisogna prima liberarlo. Diana Blake ha vinto. Ha conquistato il Trono Oscuro, sbaragliato le Confraternite, reclamato il titolo di Nera. Ma la pace che avvolge Nocturnia è fragile come ghiaccio sottile su acque nere. Gli Evocatori, i Maghi Neri, i Negromanti si sono ritirati nelle loro fortezze, feriti ma vivi, e il Potere Oscuro continua a strangolare la terra come un'edera velenosa che non muore mai. Diana lo sa: finché le Confraternite respireranno, Nocturnia non conoscerà l'alba.

The journey to Yenice is long, and Luciel has a big task ahead of him. Charged with reviving a long-defunct branch of the Healer’s Guild in a nation of beastfolk, the S-rank healer’s mission was never going to be easy. But things are made even more complicated when it is revealed that the country is home to its own host of problems, and even Luciel’s reputation isn’t enough to keep trouble away.

Luciel is moving up in the world and people, both good and bad, powerful and weak, have begun to take notice of this peculiar young man. Bent on becoming the best healer he can be in order to aid the many people who can’t afford treatment from the price-gouging clinics, he accepts his new position with trepidation, heading straight for the source of the infamous guild’s corruption. But something is up with the Church—a labyrinth of monsters lurks beneath the floor of the healers’ headquarters.

Change is coming for the Church of Saint Shurule, and Luciel’s first act as an S-rank healer is one that promises to shake the very foundations of the healing profession. But leave it to the ignorant masochist to find himself once again in way over his head in the process. The shoes that he’s inadvertently stepped into—those of his legendary predecessor—won’t be easy to fill, and the whole “imprisoned dragons” debacle continues to loom over the hapless young man as he struggles to move forward.
