Picking up after the shocking ending of
Volume 1, Koro faces a demon that can read the deepest secrets of her shielded
heart. Together with the iron-willed dwarf Dorma, she must overcome her darkest
fears, or succumb to them. Meanwhile, Lu and Aki, stranded at the bottom of the
world, stand poised to finally lift the ancient secret of the "Hall of Dreaming
Treasures." But when the dreaded Houndmaster tracks them down, Lu must face a
truth she long sought to run from, if they have any hope of
surviving.
