Why let slumber rule your destiny when waking is your fate? A sword, a kiss, a king, a kingdom-a prophecy that put a nation into unyielding sleep. The only hope of her countrymen, Aurora returns home to find that the exiled people of Penzelle have been poisoned. Alongside her guardian Artyrus, she learns the wicked truth when Merlin, the trusted Seer of Chamelaute, reveals that the king has put her people into a deadly slumber. Despite Merlin's best efforts to keep the pair in the realm of consciousness, a broken spindle carries them deep into a unified dreamscape, where their only aim is to get everyone out alive. When a series of trials are set to begin within their new reality, an opportunity to pull the vaunted sword Excalibur is revealed, leading Aurora to participate in the hopes that its deliverance will wake Penzelle. Otherlande presents perils of its own, leaving Aurora and Artyrus contending with subconscious anomalies that would otherwise only exist within the confines of their minds. But combating the dream is merely half the battle, for, in the realm of the conscious, a full-scale rebellion brews. Tensions peak when a jilted ex-queen joins forces with the growing insurgency, and their very future lies with the sleeping beauty and her warrior chaperone. A revelation, a crown, a princess, a divine destiny-it will take more than true love to awaken a revolution.
