story so far: Canto has faced many challenges in his journey to find his beloved’s heart. He’s confronted monsters and foes, learned surprising truths, and found his way to the top of the Emerald Tower. But none of it has prepared him to face the Shrouded Man, the sorcerer who has taken his people’s hearts. Propelled by a tale that has turned out to be false, has Canto’s journey been in vain? Or can he still be the hero of legend? written by
