In the declining kingdom of Felara, where anthropomorphic feline races struggle under weakened rule, King Taranis finds his well-intentioned reign crumbling despite his efforts. When tragedy strikes a peaceful village, it sets several characters on separate journeys across a dangerous realm. A royal guard faces orders that challenge his principles. A young felid makes a discovery that changes everything she thought she knew about herself. A skilled thief flees powerful enemies across the desert.
As their paths converge, these unlikely characters-joined by a diverse cast of companions spanning scholars, pirates, spiritual seekers, and soldiers-find themselves caught up in a web of court intrigue and conspiracy that reaches the highest levels of power. In a world where loyalty is tested and nothing is as it seems, each must make difficult choices as political and unholy machinations threaten to tear the kingdom apart.
Set in a richly imagined fantasy world loosely inspired by Welsh elements, this tale explores themes of identity, loyalty, love, justice, and family as strangers become allies in their search for truth.
