Elderra's Champion — Catherine Fitzsimmons

War is closing in on all sides of the kingdom of Faneria. To the west, the Army of Light goes on a crusade to convert or destroy all those who don't follow their faith. To the east, the peoples of the Free Lands, intent on protecting their way of life, form their own army and march to meet their opponents in battle.

Yet only Damian Sires knows that the Army of Light is merely the arm of the Gods of Light, who are using the people of Elderra to fight their own war for them. As an outcast and infamous as the Witch of the Battle of Albrith, nothing she says would convince anyone that they are being manipulated into fighting.

Truth is a commodity in short supply and conflicting politics make matters more complicated. With fewer allies left than before, Damian can only resort to sabotage. Yet even she doesn't realize the extent to which the gods are meddling, and the only way to break free might be to take the fight to them.
