There was never a night Waydsyn Scot escaped Thraegar Thornclaw's ominous vow.
Never a morning he didn't search the horizon.
Never a day he didn't prepare for Thraegar's return.
Many believed the Alderidon Wolves had broken Thraegar's spirit-that their escape shattered the Draebek forever.
Others knew better.
While the greatest city of northern Ardonor strengthened its walls and sharpened its blades, something far more dangerous was unfolding deep within the Draestl Mountains. A divided people were being united. A long-buried power was awakening.
And when an Alderidon Wolves scout suddenly transforms into a dragon, the truth can no longer be denied.
Thraegar Thornclaw was coming.
And he was coming for Waydsyn Scot-
at any cost.
