The Banished Lands are engulfed in war. Queen Rhin has conquered the west and High King Nathair holds the cauldron, most powerful of the seven treasures. At his back stand the scheming Calidus and a warband of the Kadoshim, demons of the Otherworld. They plan to bring Asroth and his host of the Fallen into the world of flesh, but to do so they need all seven treasures. Nathair has choices to make; choices that will determine the fate of the Banished Lands.
Corban has been swept along by the tide of war. He has suffered, lost loved ones and tried to deny his destiny. But he will run no more. He has seen the face of evil and has set his will to fight it. The question is, how? With a disparate band gathered about him, he begins the journey to Drassil, the fabled fortress hidden deep in the heart of Forn Forest. For here lies the spear of Skald, one of the seven treasures. And here it is prophesied that the Bright Star will finally make his stand against the Black Sun, deciding the fate of the nations.
