As Kingfall's fuse burns ever closer to the powder keg of all-out war,
the secrets of the godblades are slowly unsheathed.
In Travail, Dane and Peony face usurpers and a scheme by those seeking
to overthrow the dragon throne, forcing Peony to flee to Solarii with
Daneus to request help from the Dead King. In Teravainen, Jarrod must
face his demons and learn how to rule in the wake of his father's
murder. When the darkblades are stolen, he is forced to ride south
seeking retribution, while a newly graduated mage named Quill is sent by
Aeromand to investigate.
Meanwhile, as Amari begins her search for Sampson, her path crosses that
of another lost soul in the unlikeliest of places. And when Ando leads
his hardy band of misfit soldiers into Solarii, an unexpected enemy is
there waiting for him. Looming in the darkness is a growing evil that
threatens the entire continent, whether innocent or otherwise.
