Rafael Cavalo thought escaping the lizard world of Krozeth would be easy. He was wrong. Captured once again after a failed escape, Rafael finds himself trapped inside a temple guarded by warriors who are done playing games. This time, there's no room for tricks, no easy way out, and no guarantee he'll make it back home. But the real danger isn't just the temple. It's Dwall. Once a proud guard, Dwall's growing jealousy and reckless behavior begin to spiral out of control, turning him into a threat to everyone around him. As tensions rise and alliances begin to shift, Rafael quickly realizes that not every enemy is who they seem-and not every ally can be trusted. Meanwhile, a deeper truth begins to surface. The missions that sent Rafael across worlds may not be as harmless as he was told. And the more he learns, the harder it becomes to ignore the damage he's caused. Now, Rafael faces a choice: Keep running... or finally face the consequences. In a world of jungle dangers, rising conflict, and unexpected alliances, survival may depend on doing the one thing he's avoided all along-changing.
