Description
After Mount Weather, Clarke Griffin can't bring herself to walk through the gates of Arkadia. For months, she wanders through the wilderness, tortured by the repercussions of the decisions she has made and haunted by the lives she has taken, and, in her final form of penance, she takes her own. Greeted by Death himself, he informs her of a soon to occur extinction-level event, one he calls Praimfaya, and he tells her that she is the only one who can save humanity. Long after she has taken her final breath, he returns her to life so she may serve her daunting purpose, and the aftermath of unnaturally crossing back through the veil that separates life and death manifests in powerful abilities beyond comprehension. A relationship that began as enemies, progressed to allies, and culminated in betrayal, grows into something much deeper, and, even in the face of imminent death, the love between two leaders grows stronger than ever. After vowing to remain by Clarke's side no matter the danger, with only five months to prepare for the end of the world, Lexa and Clarke search for solutions to save it together. Not even conflict pauses in the face of extinction, however, and with a terrifying creature wanting Clarke's soul, the queen of Azgeda wanting Clarke's head, and war brewing on the horizon, the task of stopping Praimfaya seems exponentially more impossible. Clarke's title of Wanheda, the Commander of Death, has never been more literal, and, with this new purpose of saving humanity, she can't help but wonder if the Commander of Death is capable of bringing anything other than that.
