Après sept années de combat contre le mal ultime du monde, Charisma Fongorn, une Élue, est devenue une guerrière forte et solide qui ne se berce pas d’illusions de bonheur… Même son don pour entendre les chants de la terre s’est estompé. Sourde à ses propres instincts, elle ignore que des monstres errent dans l’obscurité souterraine de la ville. Lorsqu’Aleksandr trouve Charisma, qui a été victime d’une attaque, il la sauve et la soigne, et l’espoir surgit de nouveau dans son coeur… et dans le monde. Cependant, dans les méandres de son âme, il connaît la vérité : une femme si exceptionnelle ne pourrait jamais aimer une bête… n’est-ce pas?
