In Nideea—on the edge of the Shining Sea—Alleak lives a peaceful life, unaware of the dangers that surround him.
Whimsical and carefree, and isolated from the greed of those who run the land, he knows little of the competitions for power that rage beyond his borders... but when an old friend brings a cargo to Nideea that sparks a war, Alleak's life plunges into Chaos.
Placing his trust in the man whose actions caused for the destruction of his hometown, Alleak allies himself with a madman. Battling enemies that are not his own, he struggles every day to survive the horrors he has endured.
Torn between his need for justice and his desire to protect a woman he barely knows, Alleak discovers that both his fortune and hers are entwined with the doom of Dragonsclaw.
