Betrayal and Isolation: The Walls Go Up in Passage 14: Sanctuary Divides

The chaotic battles on the freeway are over, but the war is just beginning—and the enemy is closer than anyone suspected.

In the wake of the battle against the Pretender Princes, the heroes of the Roundtable are left reeling from a devastating loss. But before they can even process the sudden disappearance of their leader, the true conflict explodes from within their own ranks.

Passage 14: Sanctuary Divides is a white-knuckle chapter that turns the entire narrative on its head. A trusted ally makes a sudden, brutal choice, proving that not everyone shares the same loyalties. This act of betrayal triggers a chain reaction that shatters the group, leaving them isolated and exposed on multiple fronts.

The Walls of Separation

A mysterious power known only as the Sanctuary is activated, effectively removing most of the heroes from the board. You'll witness one of the most heartbreaking emotional stand-offs as a beloved character is forced to make a life-altering choice: power and loyalty to a destructive past, or vulnerability and freedom for a hopeful future.

Meanwhile, the separation forces other heroes into terrifying corners:

• In Limbo: Our missing leader is not alone, but the new company he keeps is shrouded in mystery and ancient purpose.

• On the Fringes: Outside the barrier, only a few remaining warriors are left to confront powerful foes and a devastating new enemy presence that has been waiting years for revenge.

This is a passage about consequences. Every action has a price, and the choices made here—to fight, to flee, or to be left behind—will determine the lineup for the rest of the book. The group may be shattered, but their resolve to bring their leader home is the only thing that remains unbroken.

Don't miss the intense fallout in Passage 14: Sanctuary Divides. The fight isn't over—it's just gotten personal.
