But Juliana has been neglecting her duties as ruler, and has not noticed the discontent that has grown amongst the youth of the capital city. She learns of a secret sect that lives illegally inside the great Architectons, but she cannot believe what she hears about their strange practices. Juliana becomes determined to discover what has made the young people so angry and self-destructive. and she vows to go to any length to find out the truth.
