The second installment of The Soulfast Trilogy delves into the story of Tristan and Sabina, set against the backdrop of 12th-century England. As promised, Nature reunites the devoted couple, granting them the chance to share a full life together. However, the Mother of Creation entrusts them with a vital mission—one that holds the key to England's very survival.
She grants them a remarkable gift: a book from the future—The Book of Choices. This mysterious tome is adorned with strange symbols, hieroglyphs, morphemes, and an indecipherable language, delivering cryptic messages about pivotal decisions that must be made. Yet, it offers no hint as to who will make these choices or what consequences will emerge from each path chosen.
As the couple examines the mysterious volume, Sabina suddenly finds herself able to decipher the first page—the first Choice, although the rest remain shrouded in mystery. But they soon discover that as each Choice is made, the next page—the next Choice, unveils itself to her.
The Choices grow increasingly significant with each new revelation, carrying far-reaching consequences. It quickly becomes evident that these decisions will shape the very course of English history. Tristan and Sabina must race against time to interpret each Choice and identify the individual destined to make it. Failure would mean the loss of England’s independence and its very identity.
After the Soulfast ceremony reached its conclusion, Simon found himself utterly alone, grappling with the devastating loss of Sabrina. Her death had left an unfillable void in his life, and his only glimmer of hope rested on the mysterious and untested power of the ancient rite they had both dared to embrace. Against all odds, the unthinkable happened—the miracle unfolded. At the very moment the Soulfast ceremony ended, Simon and Sabrina were reunited, their bond transcending the boundaries of life and death. Someone in the distant future had exchanged the magic rings, and Nature had kept her promise.
For a brief, euphoric moment, the promise of a joyful future stretched out before them—a future where love had triumphed over despair. But fate is rarely so kind. Catherine, her life reduced to ruins by her own bitterness and obsession, remained a dark force on the periphery. With her immense wealth and a burning desire for vengeance, she was a storm brewing on the horizon, ready to destroy any shred of happiness Simon and Sabrina might find.
The Soulfast had granted Simon and Sabrina a second chance, but it came with a cruel limit—they could only be reunited once. Should Sabrina fall to death’s grasp again, there would be no more miracles, no more hope. Such a loss would be catastrophic for Simon, leaving his life fractured beyond repair. And for Catherine, it would be her moment of triumph. A twisted smile would grace her lips as she finally exacted the black revenge she had long craved, ensuring that love’s light was extinguished forever.
