In the ancient world of Terravale, kings and nations vie for power. This is an epic tale of conflict, devious plotting, and greed which takes us from the dark, cold land of Vladawhelm, to the warm and sunny Silver Isle, and the warrior women of Nachtholme. Kings and queens plot to secure their future dynasties through their sons and daughters, and a complex web of alliances and acts of treason is revealed as this gripping tale unfolds.We look into a dangerous world, where human life is cheap, and where the powerful will do almost anything to get their way. The concept of what makes a good ruler, and the necessary conflict between tyranny and fairness is examined, as far-reaching decisions have to be made by a young king who unexpectedly inherits a throne, and needs to establish his authority. Who will win the ultimate struggle for power, and will the prize be worth it?
