One seizes the delights of the present. The other sees and despairs for their future.Innathi and Ishuna, the heirs of the Dark Elf Queen of V’Gedra, are traveling the sand dunes with their entourage. In urgent need of water, the sisters enter the sacred canyons of Koorul, where they interrupt a mystic rite of passage for the Human son of a Sorcerer-King.Negotiations fare well between the two desert peoples until powerful magic blends with the discoveries of youth which quickly get out of control. Incomprehensible joy crashes into a dark dread which cannot be named, and a schism begins between the sisters.Diplomacy is critical to avoid unnecessary conflict, yet the Queen’s daughters do not agree on the goal. Each has her version of the events at Koorul, and each is certain of the outcome should Innathi pursue the wild magic of the Zauyrian son.A close alliance with a Sorcerer-King could bring pleasure, prosperity, and new life thriving in the Desert, or it might corrupt a delicate balance to bring down the realms and all they had ever known.This second volume of Tales of Miurag is a standalone novel which can be read on its own. Dramatic events and mature themes weave into broad history and lore headed toward a cataclysm which will change the entire world."The Desert" is also Etaski’s ultimate villains’ origin, featuring several antagonists introduced in the Sister Seekers series. This story takes place approximately 3500 years before "No Demons But Us", where hints of these events past echo forward and impact future generations. less
