If a god can be slain, a dragon must. But when Lord Versos finally reaches the shores of his homeland, he is captured by a long-forgotten enemy revealing truths about his realm he had never considered. A hidden power that may bring all to their knees rises. The realm he used to protect is torn by fratricide and the Commander shoulders the blame. And as the civil war unfolds, the losses pile up high and wide-but to him, mostly near and dear. Lord Versos fosters a new allegiance-but the greatest ally may yet be the ultimate foe.
