Description
The Demon Lord returns to his former tomb to solve the mystery of the accursed box he hopes is a portal to Naskara. His ordeal in Damnation has left deep mental scars that make him leery of braving the unknown and not even sure he wants to help the light anymore. He has paid too high a price for doing so and all he wants now is to return home. In Naskara, he discovers who helped to free him, and why, and the dark angels who want him to be their god follow him there.Silven has more freedom, with Lathe as her protector, and she is unable to resist the lure of visiting her traveller friends. Marlan offers to teach her how to use magic, and a strange encounter reveals the presence of new enemies. Lathe keeps her safe, for now, but Arkonen has plans to exact his revenge on her father, and they include Silven. She is forced to seek the aid of a black cult, whose ties to warlocks and demons can protect her, and her family, but the arrangement has pitfalls. As long as Arkonen thinks she is on a dark path, he might choose to leave her be, but Lathe is vulnerable to the Black Lord’s machinations.When Naskara reaches Airedene, the celestial cities clash in an apocalyptic battle, wherein Naskara could tip the balance of power in the darkness’ favour. If Airedene is destroyed, it may never be rebuilt, and its loss would change destiny forever. The seven Grey Gods have gathered to fight this latest battle in the eternal god war between the darkness and the light, but they face a dire enemy in the form of seven ancient and powerful dark gods.
