About this ebook
The world beyond the walls is a fractured place.
Its history is inked in blood, its people divided, its lands littered with dangerous magical remnants left by the First Folk - ancient beings who are now but the whisper of a memory.
It is those whispers that Fola, a sorceress from the isolated City of the Wise, is hunting down. Her quest will take her into a cursed kingdom plagued by wraiths, entangle her in the mystery surrounding the death of a king, and push her towards a girl with strange powers, guarded by someone stranger still - a grey man armed with a ghostwood blade.
The way ahead is fraught with danger. Fola must navigate threats from both the living and the dead to find her answers and make it back home alive. But three things remain true, above all else.
Fellowship is stronger than isolation.
The past will come back to haunt you.
Nothing stays secret forever.
A fantasy epic of breathtaking scope, this is a rich standalone adventure for fans of Geralt and Ciri in The Witcher, for those who loved the mystery of The Tainted Cup, or for anyone trying to recapture the magic of The Wheel of Time.
