Centuries ago, the Halryians came to Aerothos and began an age of ruthless conquest. One by one, the old kingdoms fell beneath the might of the Halryians and their god. And when peace finally returned to Aerothos, the land rejoiced. But the thirst for power can never be satisfied. In a continent of grand and mighty kingdoms, powerful alliances and threatening empires, the Kingdom of Rhodrien lies at the center. Caim, Jeyk, and Leila Marcher grew up within the borders of their quiet realm, born and raised for the royal leadership that would one day be demanded of them - and never expecting a life with too many difficulties. But when the horns of war sound throughout Aerothos once again, the Marchers soon realize how cruel Aerothos truly is.
