Messages have arrived from the High King, while secret whispers speak of impending war. To strengthen the High kingdom new laws are being enacted that some people might see as 'unjust'... In every disaster someone suffers, someone prospers, and someone takes a stand. Will Darrix keep his oath to honour the High King? Or will he risk jail, or worse, in rebellion? An emotionally engaging narrative culminating in a gripping, epic finale. - Karlie, 14. Supurb writing Classic adventure - Andrew Nominious.
