Here goes the second book, Last time we found Rourke's body. Now let's continue.
After giving some clothes to Rourke, the group starts to question the guy. He claims that there was a disaster warning and the guests are in shelter. After this commotion, they decided to look for Diego. They get ready and leave for Elystal (The home of Watchers). On the way, Taylor senses that he is stuck in a time loop and none other notice. He finds the source and destroys it without telling anyone. Soon they reach Elystal and lurk around in shadows to look for Diego which they did. He has grown a beard but rest is fine. Now, they plan to rescue him but Elystal is too guarded. They soon realize that Diego along with some people is leaving for some ruins. They follow him and reach there. Now, half of them distract the guards outside and other half go inside to rescue Diego. They realize that Watchers needed Diego to recover a statue but surprise surprise Rourke betrays you. He helds Diego at gunpoint and demands the statue. After a little hussle, Rourke escapes without the Statue and you are trapped with the Watcher. At last you are taken to the Elystal and there's a hearing on you by the queen. Well first of, the Watchers are a tribe called Vaanti, the guys at ith whom Taylor can communicate is the prince and is named Varynn. Anyway, they are taken and there they are known that Vaanti worships a being called Endless. The figure wears a Red spacesuit and has a mechanical arm. He has predicted that a group of 12 people called the Catalysts will prevent the destruction of the island which the tribe call Vaanu. Anyway, you lose the hearing and are exiled to another nearby Island with no way to return as the waters are covered with Piranas which will eat up the wood. Though a special sap can prevent that. They are met with a french pirate there from a very old time (The Pirate Era like Pirate of the Caribbean, because you know the time on island is a mashup of times). The pirate Yvonne asks us to find her a tresure which we do help her though she doesn't find what she was looking for. Here, we get to know that Estela is a certified superhuman. She can hold her breath for 14 minutes. Anyway, they enjoy a little while they can and then get back to Vaanu with Yvonne's help. Oh by the way, they are finding the Catalyst idols (statues) but it's nothing to mention. So when they reach Elystal, it is under attack by Cetus who has healed from when we blow its mouth up. We help the Vaanti defend the Elystal using air gliders and mini bombs, etc. especially Taylor dude was jump at the top of hydra and tearing of its tentacle like nothing. So, long story short, the queen sacrifices herself and we take down Cetus... again. Varynn is crowned the king and Taylor is respected by the Vaanti for his well... Help. Then, during all the celebrations Quinn is standing at one of the bridge and looking at the sunset when suddenly she collapses. Quinn had Rotterdam syndrome and just now her life came to an end. Taylor saw the one he loved die right in his arms with her last words being, "Everyon fights so hard to have some say in their own life... To have some control over themselves. But in the end... All we really had control over was wheather we appreciated what we had. And when you finally make it... To the other side... You'll be a Queen... You always carried." The moment was heartbreaking, yes. (Oh btw, she had this from the beginning, I just forgot to mention, even it was because of this condition that she was pushing Taylor away at the start. Anyway). After talking to the Shaman of the Vaanti, we go to a spectator dimension and turn back time to find the roots of the Elystal which is said to be able to save her, to be precise there's a crystal which can. We do find it and bring it back. After some time, Quinn wakes up, well something in her body does. She is flying and stuff and breaking everything, where Taylor had to step in and bring her back. Well it was the Island's spirit. The crystal was the Island's heart which is broken and the spirit inhabiting her body wishes to find the other half (You'll be surprised to find where that is). After a heart to heart between Taylor and Quinn, everyone enjoys some water sport and stuff. Then. It's time to leave. IRIS which went back with Rourke communicated with them told them that she is Aleister's mother, well her consciousness used to be. Anyway, she tells them to find the MASADA facility because it can take them back. They leave and soon find themselves trapped in a blizzard. Well, they do find a Polar bear hunting them but Quinn managed to tame it using the power of the heart. Turns out, the the polar bear was attracted to Poly and Poly will be it's successor as the Guardian of the Ice. (Remember the crab in book 1 well it was the guardian of the Mountains and Cetus is the guardian of the sea). Well the Bear left promising to return of we need iits help. Them we find a Wooden cabin, well it wasn't short of a mansion for Rourke's esteemed guests and decided to rest. There the group threw a party for Taylor as he is the anchor of the group and everyone is grateful to him. Well, at night Taylor notices someone taking away the island's heart. He wakes everyone and they chase after the person. They find out it was someone named Fiddler, aember of Jake's former group where he was betrayed by the commander. Rourke has hired them, etc. So somehow, they get it back. Now, they start moving but not long before rest of the Arachnids attack them (Jake's former group, they are a private military). It is revealed that the Arachnids are here because someone leaked the information that Jake was here, so to settle the score they were here. So after a lot of fighting. Summoning the ice guardian for help, and a whole lot of despair, Quinn snaps and the heart takes over, she deals with all of the people. Taylor again snaps her out of it (Now this doesn't actually happens but I'm gonna improvise) The spirit inside Quinn feels a strange attachment towards Taylor and but before anything it subsides. They did suffer some damage, like Sean was on the verge of frostbite, etc. After a night's rest, they decided to infiltrate MASADA corporation. There was only cable car seperating the building and the cliff, and no other way so they decided to dress up as Arachnids and take the rest as prisoners. Plan's sucessful, they are in. After a lot of finding they found some good equipments, Craig got a laser cannon, some arachnid weapons, and a time phone, etc. Well they do reach the Portal machine. They use the island's heart as the energy source and open the portal to Helartfeld (their college). They find out that the world really is destroyed. After some travelling and seeing around, everything was engulfed in Lava with not a shred of open land remaining they decide to go back. That's what they do. When they return, entire facility is at red alert. The gates were shut but Aleister was able to open it as being Rourke's son, all the while Rourke is trying to manipulate him. And he succeeded, Aleiseter betrays the group, they make a beeline for exit by blowing things up but Grace gets injured and Aleister keeps her with him. When they do reach the parking, the Arachnid vehicles are glitching, it is revealed that it was Jake himself who called them here. He sends the message back in time and the vehicles became solid. Half board the helicopter, the other half went to cable car which was cut down and they climbed with the rope. When the helicopter took off, the soldiers started shooting RPG towards them. Quinn in an attempt to protect them use the heart and took the rocket on herself. Boom. The helicopter starts spinning and Taylor is thrown out. In the epilogue, he wakes up with Yvonne finding him and takes him to the Trial of Flames. There Taylor meets the Endless who reveals that all the other catalysts are still alive. Then since, we collect all the Catalyst idols we have the knowledge to clear the trial and Endless removes his mask. He is...
