The story then goes back several years to Jax’s backstory, in which the Epic [[Lovestruck]] kills his beloved older brother. Jax is then recruited by [[Prof]], who introduces him to the Reckoners and takes him to the [[Coop\|Reckoners training facility]]. Jax is personally trained to be a Reckoner by [[Zeff]], the head trainer there. After an operation goes awry, leaving Zeff dead, Jax and the remaining Texas Reckoners decide to infiltrate the flying city of [[Lux (city)\|Lux]], ruled by the High Epic [[Lifeforce]]. They climb up into the city, disguising their weapons and gear using a [[Motivator#Scorchnotes\|motivator]]. Lux is kept in the air by an Epic called Wingflare, and the Reckoners sneak a motivator into the power grid so they can wrest control of the city from her. They try to assssinate Lifeforce, but they are betrayed by [[Briggen]], a member of their team. They neutralize the other Epics in Lux. They confront Lifeforce, who has given himself Wingflare’s powers through scientific experimentation. Jax kills Lifeforce after figuring out his weakness. As he dies, Lifeforce injects a serum into [[Paige]], one of the Reckoners. As Lifeforce dies, Lux slowly drifts into the sea. Paige awakes weeks later, with a mean attitude and dark thoughts. She hears a voice in her head, telling her that it is the demon that had lived inside Lifeforce. It calls itself [[Deathrise]]. Lifeforce injects a serum into [[Paige]], one of the Reckoners.
