Dara soon makes a startling discovery that tests his devotion to Alamut and brings his greatest vice to the forefront. Overcoming his vice puts him at odds with Alamut, and Dara faces a daunting decision: fulfill his sworn destiny with the feda'is or desert Alamut-something no feda'i has dared do before.
