Old Canhoon, the City of Wonders, is having a population explosion as
refugees from Tyrne and Roathes alike try to escape the Sa'ba Taalor.
All along the border between the Blasted Lands and the Fellein Empire,
armies clash, and the most powerful empire in the world is pushed back
toward the old capital.
From the far east, the Pilgrim gathers an army of the faithful, heading
for Old Canhoon. In Old Canhoon itself, the imperial family struggles
against enemies old and new as the spies of their enemies begin removing
threats to the gods of the Seven Forges and prepare the way for the
invading armies of the Seven Kings.
In the distant Taalor valley, Andover Lashk continues his quest and must
make a final decision while at the Mounds, something inhuman is awakened
and set free. War is here. Blood will flow, and bodies will burn.
