A new chapter begins in the world of darkness and light. In the ashes of the old Sunnydale, a new town rises, but the fight is far from over. Buffy Summers, the chosen one, may have defeated the forces of evil, but in this new world, darkness is never truly gone — it only shifts form. As new slayers step forward, a fresh evil emerges, bringing with it an ancient curse that threatens to tear apart the fragile peace Buffy has fought for.

In a town still haunted by the scars of the past, Buffy must mentor the next generation of warriors, but she soon realizes that the line between love and sacrifice has never been so blurred. As powerful forces from her past resurface, the battle between destiny and free will rages within her heart. Will she protect the world she’s built, or will the darkness claim her once again?
