Trapped in a world that is neither life nor death, the great king watches and waits...
He sees the half-elven boy Dain earn his place at the court of the Crow Prince Gavril—and the enmity of Gavril, whose heart is poisoned by dark magick.
He sees the girl Alexeika rally the followers of her father, when the old rebel leader dies on the battlefield.
He sees the evil that threatens his kingdom drawing ever nearer.
And he knows that only these two—Dain and Alexeika—can fulfill the prophecy that will save the land.
