In the northern lands, Gabriel Huntermoon and the sorceress Rhiannon struggle valiantly to hold back the advancing Trolls, Goblins, and Blueogres. These creatures, under the command of a mysterious leader known only as the General of the Black Hordes, are destroying the last defence of the Lands of Kennar-a magical barrier erected 800 years ago by the progenitor of the L wenr u. King Albion, bound by a double tether to the Amethyst Wall, lies gravely ill at Court, where he is attended by Abbess Valisha, who offers her potions to heal him. Yet the true intent of the wicked enchantress is to influence the monarch in order to wed his son, Jihan L wenr u. Meanwhile, the witch Yasshira, following the counsel of her mentor, Remorium Aldanius, embarks on a perilous quest to find the staff of summoning, lost centuries past, known as Yawat K al, so that she may exact her vengeance upon the Royal Household. In the capital city of Tholianeth, the population is gripped by fear, as a series of gruesome, demonic murders unfolds. County Sheriff Julius Tancredi is called upon to investigate, alongside the inquisitor Ailomer Dek and the wizard Hammerkunin. Together, they must uncover who seeks to destroy the royal family-and why-before it is too late.
