Two ordinary messengers have been brought into great power. Can they use it to heal long-held wounds?

Armored in heritage and destiny, Alanda and Tostig remain trapped on divergent paths. Confident their newfound power will save those dearest to them neither forget the undeniable lure.

Fated to rock the foundations of Ilbeor, the two former messengers each discover the malice simmering in the veins of the very land itself. Alanda surrenders herself to the privileged fetters of the royal family in hopes the king’s mighty army will rescue her brother Kitz from the clutches of the elven overlord Altoneir. Trying vainly to race to her side, Tostig becomes a pawn in the unknowable plans of the gods he serves.

Separate in body but together in soul, can Alanda and Tostig triumph? Or will they simply become two more casualties in the eternal maneuverings of those accustomed to power?
