Full Synopsis
The Aurora cult is down to one last powerful member. The enemy of my enemy can be a friend, and the Edgeworths might have to make a deal with the devil if they are going to succeed in stopping Serapis.

Years ago, Leo left his family with two bullets in his chest and decades full of hurt and resentment. He'll do anything to protect the Edgeworths and Dante from being Colleoni collateral damage, even if it means becoming their ally. They have information on Serapis, and Leo is dragged back into the hell of his old life in exchange for it.

Dante isn't about to let Leo go into hell alone. He is determined to protect Leo; from his family, the Aurora, and himself. Dante loves a challenge, and keeping Leo with him is always worth the fight. The fight with Serapis is going to dredge up all of their old insecurities, forcing them to face the darkest parts of themselves.

The past is never what it seems, and the Edgeworth crew are going to learn there have been greater forces pulling their strings for decades. Serapis might believe he's a master of chaos magic, but he's never encountered chaos like the Edgeworths. They have something stronger than magic—each other.

Contains mature themes.
