2,000 Years After the End of the World
In Briton, three Siblings will come together and share an adventure that may cost all of them their lives.
Erith Blackstorme of Hillowell, ex-palace guardsman, will find himself in the midst of a civil war. The king is dead, and two factions gather around the king’s heir, Tysus, the Duke of Staverdshir, and Sedric, the Duke of Duramshir, whose ambition is to abolish the kingship itself.
Tana Grate, still on the hunt for her stolen Tear, the mystic jewel that all the Siblings possess, has tracked the thief from her home in Merica-Cross-the-Water to Erap by means of a gate that leads her to the Republic of Navarr.
In Navarr, Arexa, the Uskalda girl, will aid Tana in her quest, which leads them to Briton for the twisted little sorcerer thief of Tana’s Tear is now in the service of Sedric of Duramshir. Arexa knows more of the secrets of Arquazel, the wizard who set their destinies in motion, and her revelations will shatter what her two Siblings thought they knew about themselves.
But none of the three know, amid their struggles, if they are forging their own destinies or if they are merely puppets of Arquazel, their true father. He desired his children to conquer the world to save mankind from extinction. Did he abandon his great Plan? Is he dead? And, even so, did he start an avalanche of Fate that none of his children can escape even if they reject his mad scheme?
And what of those men and women who oppose Arquazel, including his brother, the sorcerous warrior Atrox? He wields the invincible sword, Anquisher, made of the same substance as the Tears or Arquazel…
