For years, Knielf has harbored a hidden truth, a mystery even to himself since he was a child. This secret, however, begins to surface as emissaries from a strange military force emerge from beyond the "veil" - a mystical barrier on top of the Rukkahalum Mountains that has separated the two different worlds for over a millennia.
As Knielf and his wife Korlan make their escape, they come across Vox, a young and bizarre sorceress who helps them on their journey to the town of Danethorpe to warn the Jarl and his War Born - a dedicated group of warriors that guard the town. As all of their lives drastically change, it becomes clear that this deadly force is in search of something called the Well of Mimir, a strange artifact with unknown potential that they will stop at nothing to obtain.
When war is set upon their people, Knielf not only must learn about the secrets of his dark past, but he and his fellowship must also learn to wield the courage it takes to fight this new mysterious foe before it is too late...
