Second Movement

As the Second Movement in the Dance dawns, the Circle is split,
Cael, Alexander and Vorpal on Windia, to stop the Celebrant's destruction and gather whatever allies they can,
If only they can find a way to heal Vorpal, who has abyssal venom coursing through her veins!
While Selina and Moon go inside Whiteshield, to disrupt the enemy and find out what they can,
If only can manage to control themselves!
And we meet Kanti a Fire-Aspected Dragon-Blooded, a Knight of Heaven on the Vestal's clutches,
One whose saintly prowess just might save souls in the side of light...
If only she can get away from the hooks her mistress has on her heart and soul...

The Celebrant lies defeated, together with her army.
Kanti and Fiona taken from the Vestal, under Selina's protection, under her fear.
For some, three days have passed.
For others, ten days have gone by.
Less than a week for Resplendent Air,
Little time until the end of all life in Whiteshield.
The clock ticks.
The Labyrinth awaits.
But now...
Now, the Exalted will show the darkness why it should fear them.
