But while talks proceed well with Vasque to the east, tensions are mounting with L’ruz to the west, and when a Crownswatch Fell Mage stationed along the river border between nations suddenly goes missing, Lir of Bantam is charged with tracking her down—a task he can’t hope to complete alone. Finnian of Layton, though, has absolutely no Fell gifts to speak of, making him hardly Lir’s first choice in companion to head a search party, for if they run into any trouble, he’ll quite literally be nothing more than dead weight dragging Lir down. The two must set aside their mutual distaste for one another and work together to rescue Finnian’s wayward twin Fiona—but in the course of their hunt, they uncover a decidedly more sinister plot brewing well across the border, deep in the heart of Ruzian territory. less

Orexa cannot let the capture and torture of one of her citizens by Ruzian authorities go unchallenged, but with no standing army and only a tentative treaty with Vasque on the books, King Vizick is left with little recourse but to summon representatives from the sister nations and pray diplomacy will win out in the end... moreThree nations, on the brink of war—none of whom can afford one.
