## Official Description

Hank and Sparkles discovered there was no time to investigate the catastrophic disappearance of every person in sight, and were forced to rely on his show's vanishing trick to narrowly escape the clutches of two magical beings out for blood - much to his cat's surprise. Yet, the pair managed to make it out of Sin City and encountered the druid Sudana, who may be able to shed some light on the strange and deadly events occurring around them. Meanwhile, Hector and Alle found themselves unexpectedly transported to the Void Realm and as the realm's creatures ferociously purged on their fellow trapped humans flesh, the two must attempt to find refuge anywhere they can...

## Plot Synopsis

In the French Quarter of Louisiana, Samsun is confronted by a trio of wiccans, claiming that they have the means to bring him the powerful wizard, Kon.

Later, in Los Angeles, Hank Medley, Sudana and Sparkles travel to along a freeway littered with abandoned cars. Sudana reveals that the druid ruling council, the Order of the Five has been decimated, with only one living member remaining, and that the Hank is a uniquely gifted individual in terms of magical abilities, which is why he why he was sought out to meet the wizard, Kon.

The party arrives at LAX Airport with the intention of commandeering an aircraft with enough fuel to travel to Costa Rica, but are soon attacked by a gang of magically gifted thugs for encroaching on their territory. The group manages to beat them back with the aid of Sparkles, who attacks one of the gangsters, Money, with her claws and magically summoned arrows.

Meanwhile, in the Void Realm, Alle and Hector fight for survival. Alle states that she and Hank have been having problems with their relationship for some time, and so she never confronted him about his magical talents, despite her knowledge of it. The pair is interrupted by a pack of lupine beasts, which Hank is able to fend off using a stash of wizard's trinkets, but is soon bested by a swarm of insectoid drones that capture him and Alle. Noticing that the interlopers are using human magic in the Void Realm, a dark conjurer, Serke, orders the drones to bring them to him.

Later, Hank, Sudana and Sparkles are flying toward Costa Rica, where the druid elaborates on her people and their ideals. Whilst strictly prohibited from interfering in the course of history, they are able to witness and record a great deal of it through a network of consciousness. Hank discusses his past as a street urchin who discovered a talent to vanish and reappear at an early age. Sudana claims that he has the potential to travel much further, possibly even to other realms.
