An unstoppable warrior meets an immovable defender with innocent rodents in the crossfire.

Failing to stop King Ridgerd from sailing to Qawar, Sanu is stuck between working with his brother to find a way for peace and doing right by the king he's grown to admire. When he has a chance to slip away to the Holy City and meet with Nasalid, defender of the island, he does so, wondering if he'll live to see his twin again.

It was Jab's idea to split up, and now he wonders if he's sent his brother to die. Jab is stuck with the king on a warpath, tearing up his home. Where his brother wants to find a diplomatic solution, Jab is determined to force these invaders off his island.

Nasalid is using all the island's resources to defend it, perhaps only so he can be a king of the ashes. The brothers are running out of time before the island is ruined by the war, filled with FAMILIES BROKEN.
