To the kingdom, Maugis is the Count of Aygremont and a trusted paladin of Charlemagne. Secretly, he's the apprentice of a powerful Fae sorceress, the guardian of a hidden truth that could alter the course of history. When his mentor sends him to retrieve a relic vital to her plans, Maugis enlists fellow paladins Turpin, Bradamante, and the legendary Roland for a mission no one else is meant to know about. Or so they believed, until the demon appeared. As deadly as it is, the greater threat lies with whoever summoned the creature - and how they learned of the secret quest. Could there be a spy within Charlemagne's court? Or has an enemy emerged from Maugis' past, where the Fae murdered his father and pitted brother against brother in a deadly contest? Yet each truth uncovered reveals another secret - each one darker and deadlier than before.
This story begins the Avalon arc, continued in The Sorceress of Avalon and Merlin Reborn.
