A musician whose song can soothe even the wildest of hearts.
And a nobleman with the gods" own luck.
Three strangers gifted with powers beyond that of normal mortals stand against the armies of shadow. But there are other gods, other powers lurking in the darkness, and they too will find their champions.
Hunted by mortal and immortal enemies alike, Alesh and his companions flee south to the Ferinan lands. There, they will search for help they desperately need, those who might stand with them against the coming darkness.
A nobleman without hope.
A musician to whom every song sounds like a funeral dirge.
A castle servant at risk of being consumed by an evil greater than any he has faced.
They have set themselves against the coming Ever Dark. But shadows are not easily conquered, and no matter how many are cut down, more rise in their place.
For the truth of shadows is that they are not born. They are made.
