Publisher's Synopsis
THE STAGE IS SET...LET THE GAMES BEGIN!
After defeating Waykemin's Witches Council, Katerin Leader and Rekaré Kinslayer face new challenges. Waykemin's overseas ally, Chatain, Emperor of Daran, has abducted Katerin's daughter Witmara. A new threat arises from the East which requires Katerin's attention, so it falls to Rekaré to aid Witmara--which supports Rekaré's vow for vengeance upon Chatain.
Meanwhile, Chatain's estranged half-sister Betsona aids Witmara's escape, and encourages her to overthrow Chatain. When Rekaré arrives in Daran, Betsona helps her. But does Betsona intend to use Rekaré and Witmara to become Empress?
At the same time, the rift between the Seven Crowned Gods splinters beyond recovery. How do the actions of Rekaré, Katerin, and Witmara play into the war between the Gods?
Battles at the Nerean Gate and the Spring Festival in Daran decide the fates of Gods and humans...and things will never be the same.
