Synopsis
With war looming between the rival Green Bone clans, the Kaul family of the No Peak Clan must navigate an increasingly complex world where power extends far beyond the streets of Janloon. As foreign nations and criminal enterprises begin to see the potential of jade, the Kauls must form alliances, expand their influence, and protect their way of life from outside forces.
Hilo, now Pillar of No Peak, struggles to balance his violent nature with the responsibilities of leadership. Shae, the clan’s Weather Man, must outmaneuver political threats both at home and abroad. And Anden, exiled from Janloon, is forced to find his own path in a world where jade is both a blessing and a curse.
As war threatens to consume them all, the Kauls must make ruthless choices that will define the future of their clan and their legacy.
