As might returns to the Universe, evil stirs within stone. Those who slept, awaken, as magic settles into unlikely hands.

In the city of Assadar, power finds a young man. Newly appointed high seer Edric finds himself faced with a terror he could not have foreseen. A dwarf's memories guide him on a path he must walk to save a King's daughter, to protect his city from falling into ruin. Mysteries of old wrap him into a web of secrets he must unravel to find the truth.

And all the while, dark wings shroud a city made of white marble, a city where an ancient entity holds a King's daughter captive in the tallest tower.
