Lieutenant Commander Vinyanel Ecleriast has unfinished business with the dragon-kin, and news of a recent abduction fans his smoldering convictions to flame. On a self-appointed investigation of converging threats, Vinyanel discovers that enemies are poised to employ the Chalice of Gherag-Tal in a gruesome plot of sacrifice and domination.
Together with his prophetess mentor, silver dragon mount, and an assassin in tow, Vinyanel resolves to return to the dragon-kin stronghold where his previous squadron lost their lives. The specter of failure haunts every step of his journey.
The arrival of a hatchling dragon and her caretaker further complicates an already dubious mission. Only if Vinyanel can unify this disjointed alliance of companions do they have a hope of preventing the abominable ritual the dragon-kin have planned.
Time runs shorter with every moonrise.
A festering grudge. A rekindled quest. A crippling wound. The clash of warring factions will reveal the truth of valor’s worth.
