He catches the scent of a lone, human girl—an easy meal for a Daemon…right?The final story, “A Promise in Blood,” focuses on Eyvalari and Varik—two elves that live in the small, elf village of Ilthara. When cultists appear, they shatter the quiet peace of Ilthara and change Eyvalari and Varik’s lives forever.
