Now forced to cooperate in the retrieval of a government agent who was lost when sent into the program, Sarah Hoffman finds herself returning to Nirayel in much the same fashion as she did in her first experience. Other than increased general duress, the differences include the location of entry, the lab, and several rather unpleasant agents who will stand watch over her body while shes away. Following a failed attempt to reacquire the Selina template, now occupied by Sarahs duplicate, Kwibee reroutes her signal to the closest available computer-generated character. Once again, Sarah enters the world of Nirayel, but finds herself within the body and mind of Jesterwolfs sister Ezlea. Though relieved to have emerged in such close proximity to both her spouse and sibling, she cannot help but be at odds with Ezleas overly promiscuous personality. Having escaped their mundane lives in Brinehaven, and having resolved their differences with regard to Selina, Marcus and Borin once again become determined to follow the paths of Warrior and Paladin. Despite the unlikelihood of their being successful, Borin grows lighthearted. In all the long years since the fall of Arbitos, he is finally able to smile in the face of adversity, for at long last, he is doing what every Warrior should: embarking on a quest so as to right a wrong. To an extent, Jesse has come to terms with the inescapable delusion that the world of Nirayel represents. He even manages to maintain a minor semblance of clinical curiosity. What he is not prepared to handle are the relentlessly unyielding advances of the most frustrating teen-aged female Wood-Elf rapist that it has ever been his guilt-ridden pleasure to meet. Of course, theres also the jolting discovery that there are now two versions of Sarah. He also must deal with the mysterious inclusion of a rather benign Demon who possesses animals as it offers cryptic advice and tells jokes with no apparent punch line. Finally reunited in the forth and final book of the Rendering Nirayel series, Sarah One, Sarah Two, Jesse and Borin are guided by Surripere, a Demon who disavowed his evil creator, as they journey through uncharted lands in a final glorious quest: to reclaim Arbitos against all odds, and to free the lost souls of Earth.
