In a land torn apart by war, the fate of thousands is to be decided by the bravery of a few.

The Battle of the Fortress is over. Those who remain struggle to find reasons to rejoice. Thousands lie dead, and there is much Valirian must rebuild. As Syrela, the War Hero, is nowhere to be seen, and as trusting the Duchess, Lady Adiloka, seems evermore impossible, one thing becomes clear: this conflict is far from finished.

At a turning point in history, where attempts at a diplomatic resolution look trickier at every unexpected turn and unforeseen event, the survival of a nation is at stake. In this fratricidal war, will a victor ever emerge?

Often, all hope for peace seems lost, especially as the red eye of the Lion of Obsidian, Tarasmir, the Emperor of Koresh, looms on the horizon. Visions of a dark future plague many, yet there remains a faint glimmer of hope. Does it shine bright enough? Will those fighting for a better future triumph?

The tale of friendship, war, and hope continues in this second book, with battles to be fought in search of peace. What shall tomorrow look like?
