As he battles formidable adversaries, he must confront the consequences of his actions and question his role as a hero. Meanwhile, Lysander au Lune returns to the Core, determined to bring peace by uniting the treacherous Gold families.

On Luna, Mustang, the Sovereign of the Republic, faces political and criminal enemies as she strives to save her husband.

As alliances shift and power is contested, the fate of the Rising hangs in the balance.
