Five years have passed since the storied escapade of the "Liberators of Dahab." Rayan al-Qatil lives an unremarkable life as a patroller for the ancient fortress of Bourzey, excited only for his monthly visits to the town of Harasta to see his alluring crush, Mariam. Shahzad al-Salkhad finds that even with the help of his cousin Saul al-Khalid, commanding the fortress of Altawam entails more than just commanding troops. Elsewhere in Akbar, Elder Esmail Bin Solimon strikes up a friendship with Princess Fariha al-Wasat. All must join hands to thwart a conspiracy that allows an army of undead nasnas to invade Akbar.
