To save the country of Leth-aon, War must find his niece to prevent his evil father from becoming King.
War, a Duke’s son, was exiled from Leth-aon for unsavoury conduct. His illicit return coincides with his niece, the secret daughter of the queen, disappearing and it appears War’s father is responsible. Entrusted with finding her, War leaves with his estranged friend Autrey and the enigmatic Huw to save his niece and his country.
In a neighbouring world, Tuarwen, sister of the elf queen, finds humans fascinating. But most elves find them abhorrent, especially her sister. When a prophecy is born stating that humans and elves must work together for the benefit of all, Tuarwen takes it upon herself to see that it happens. Entering the human realm, she meets War and sets the prophecy in motion.
But other forces are at work and have their own agenda.
Will War find his niece and save his country from a power-hungry father, or will the prophecy of the elves overrule all?
