Time cannot be turned back. Choices made cannot be undone. With Aubin missing, Thorrn and Evyn must draw heavily on each other as Gavain returns to Oberrot City and is put on trial for his actions in Dinahe.

But suspicions against the alts are mounting up; is someone shaping the turns of time for their own ends? "You cannot change the flow of time. But I can."
