Plot

Short Summary

Tamsin is paid by Hades for finding Bo, but she refuses the payment. Seeking a means to banish him to Hel, she teams up with Stacey and the two go in search of a necklace worn by Freyja that she used to convince Hades to accept rule of the underworld. They return to the Academy where Tamsin’s past is revealed and all of her mistakes are laid bare. After encountering Acacia and Freyja, it is revealed that the entire story about Freyja doing so was a lie, and that Hades freely made the choice to do so when the spoils of war were divided between himself, Zeus and Poseidon. Evony returns, seeking to be made Fae once more by Lauren, but she also reveals that she has not been well for some time. Lauren’s test results indicate that Evony is dying, being cursed when she was The Morrigan and making her Fae would likely kill her instantly. Bo and Lauren take Evony to see Hades in an attempt to save her, but he refuses to do so. In the end, Evony puts her faith in Lauren, who promises not to give up on her, and Bo, Lauren and Evony’s relationship becomes more of a friendship. After finding out the truth about what Hades’ plans are, Tamsin meets with Bo, the two mending their relationship, Tamsin settling for being friends. Tamsin then warns Bo that her father is building an army and it is seen that Hades is able to leave his cell at will, and does so.
