The Circle surrounds him, and The Order awakens him. Selected by chance, rejected by choice, he's on his own, but never alone. The cracks are showing, and he needs to find his way back home, but all the paths there are blocked. He's lost all control. Running back home is a fool's dream. Being good is the harder road to take. How can his family love him, when it's so easy being bad?
