Fiction
An uneasy peace has existed since the fall of the Awakened
Empire centuries ago. Now the hybrid Avān share the land
with the people they once conquered: the star-born humans;
the spectral, undead Nomads; and what remains of the
Elemental Masters. With the Empress-in-Shadows an estranged ghost, it is the
ancient dynasties of the Great Houses and the Hundred
Families that rule. But now civil war threatens to draw all
of Shrīan into a vicious struggle sparked by one man’s lust
for power, and his drive to cheat death. Visions have foretold that Corajidin, dying ruler of House
Erebus, will not only survive, but rise to rule his people.
The wily nobleman seeks to make his destiny certain — by
plundering the ruins of his civilization’s past for the
arcane science needed to ensure his survival, and by
mercilessly eliminating his rivals. But mercenary
warrior-mage Indris, scion of the rival House Näsarat,
stands most powerfully in the usurper’s bloody path. For it
is Indris who reluctantly accepts the task of finding a
missing man, the only one able to steer the teetering nation
towards peace.
