Where Part One: A Child of Fire left off, the story picks up with Kora and her group allying with the villagers of the Veldt to organize a defense against the Imperil army led by the revived Atticus Noble (Ed Skrein). The film explores the personal histories and motivations of the rebel fighters, their backgrounds, and the reasons that impel them to fight. As war draws near, alliances are tested and the true cost of rebellion is known.
